Why Choose Bertram .240 H&H Magnum Brass?

  • New-production brass for a classic British or Continental sporting cartridge
  • Correctly headstamped for identification and load records
  • Manufactured by Bertram in Australia
  • Imported and supported in the United States by Desert Tech Munitions

Cartridge History

The .240 H&H Magnum is a historic British small-bore magnum associated with Holland & Holland sporting rifles. It belongs to the early twentieth-century group of high-velocity British cartridges developed for deer and plains-game hunting.

Common Rifle Types and Platforms

  • Holland & Holland sporting rifles specifically chambered for .240 H&H Magnum
  • British magazine rifles with a verified matching chamber
  • Custom or restored rifles using the exact historic chamber and tooling

Compatibility warning: Historic sporting rifles may have been altered, rebarreled, or marked under older naming conventions. Verify the exact chamber, bore, and loading-tool compatibility before ordering components.

Legacy

The cartridge is now a specialist collector and handloading proposition. Correctly headstamped new brass helps preserve rifles whose original ammunition has long been scarce.

Did You Know?

The .240 H&H family included both rimless and flanged versions. This product must be matched to the exact chamber; the versions are not interchangeable.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this loaded ammunition?

No. This listing is for new, unprimed brass cartridge cases only.

Will this brass fit every rifle with a similar caliber marking?

No. Match the complete cartridge designation to the exact chamber. Similar metric or imperial names may identify different cartridges.

Should new cases be sized before loading?

Inspect every case. Sizing or expanding may be appropriate for the firearm, chamber, bullet, and loading tools.

Why is this brass produced intermittently?

Demand is specialized, so Bertram generally manufactures these cases in scheduled batches rather than continuously.
