Do you need a scale that reads 300-400, or is a 0-0.5 Amps or 0-500 mA more 
what you're looking for?

Radio Shack has (had?) a variety of panel meters.  You'll have to make a 
suitable shunt to scale it properly.

The surplus places (Fair Radio, C&H, etc.) all have meters in one form or 
another.

If you're looking for a digital meter, All Electronics (among many, many 
others) has those little LCD modules with 3.5 digits.. their basic 
sensitivity is 200mV full scale, so you just need an appropriate resistor 
and diode network.
