Who This Is For
This load is ideal for serious big-game hunters pursuing elk, moose, black bear, or large mule deer at extended ranges in unpredictable weather. Whether you're glassing remote backcountry basins or working wet coastal rainforests, the Hornady Outfitter 300 WBY Mag gives you the confidence that your ammunition will perform when the shot of a lifetime presents itself.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Hornady CX bullet legal for hunting in California?
Yes. The Hornady CX is a monolithic copper alloy bullet that contains no lead core, making it fully compliant with California's non-lead ammunition regulations for hunting on all lands within the state. This makes Hornady Outfitter 300 WBY Mag an excellent choice for California hunters pursuing deer, elk, or wild pig.
How does the CX bullet perform compared to traditional bonded or partition bullets?
The CX bullet is engineered from a solid copper alloy with a polymer tip that initiates rapid, consistent expansion at a wide range of impact velocities. Unlike traditional cup-and-core designs, it retains over 95% of its original weight and maintains a large, uniform expanded diameter — resulting in deep penetration and reliable energy transfer on heavy-boned big game. Many hunters find it outperforms bonded bullets in weight retention and penetration consistency.
What firearms are compatible with this 300 Weatherby Magnum load?
This ammunition is chambered for the 300 Weatherby Magnum cartridge and is compatible with any rifle properly headspaced for that caliber, including popular platforms from Weatherby (Mark V, Vanguard), Browning, Remington, Christensen Arms, and others. Always verify your rifle's chamber markings and consult your owner's manual before using any new ammunition.
