I know it may be on here somewhere but I just wanted to ask since I am just now trying out limit, how much should you sit down at any given table out of the 300 bb roll you have for limit full ring ?

Doesn't matter a whole lot. I usually buy in for 50 BB's so I don't have to worry about rebuying.

So right now I am grinding at the lowest of the low .02/.04 limit.
If I am correct 20 bb = 1.60 ?
and 300 bb for this level = 24.00

What is your full BR if you don't mind me asking, much rather see you playing .1/.2 if you can afford it.

Unless they're writing the stakes in a non-standard way then the BB (big bet) is .04.
Therefore 300 BB is $12. 20BB =$0.80
Limit stakes usually refer to small and big BETS not blinds.
You want to check out if later streets are capped heads up. Not having enough to get some value off these situations would be bad.

I read one of the limit strat stickies and it said bb = 2 x bb so if its .02/.04 then a bb = .08 right? B/c of the bets on the turn and river.

LHE stakes are written in the form: Small Bet(big blind)/Big Bet
So a $1/2 game has blinds of $0.50 and $1.
Therefore 300 Big Bets at 0.02/0.04 would be 300 x 0.04 = $12.
If the blinds are 0.02/0.04 then you're playing 0.04/0.08 limit using the terms everyone else uses.

Thanks for the info, I really do appreciate it. Can someone point out to me or link me to the math behind limit?
e.g the odds/probabilities etc.

Doesnt matter how much you sit down with, as long as you have enough to cap every street. On some sites, the betting is not capped heads up, so it might be worth having a little more. On crypto I once had KK against some guy's AA on an AKKxx board, and I got about 20 bets out of him on the river lol.
