You can probably find a gunsmith who would...but..the Handi won't handle it..and you'll peen the under lug or stretch the frame..Sorry..I don't think you'll find anyone who recommends it...I certainly don't..and I bought the original 300 WSM barrel that has been talked about before..After 3 factory loads...and 100 mid-range reloads..it no longer fit Handi35's frame...It looks like it enlarged the underlug somewhat..and will take about .010" feel gauge to match it to any of my frames...My advise is to look to another venue for a 300 Win mag...I hear the Remington Sendaro's are absolutely awesome in this caliber... ;)

Don't need one.
If you can't do it with a 06 then it can't be done.
Check this out it will get you with in 90fps of a standard 300win load.
Scroll down to the lite mag 180gr.
