Technically it's spread limit. Effectively, as chillrob is no doubt aware, it's what everyone here knows as NLHE. (Tribal casinos can allow up to $500 max bets; for local cardrooms the limit is $300.)
It's even more fun for PLO. Now the limit at a cardroom is the lesser of the pot or $300, still subject to the bet and three raises. Or, at the tribal that spreads $10-25 PLO, it's effectively PLO preflop and $500-500 limit Omaha high postflop.

Player A calls
Player B can now raise?
I hate spread limit so much.
Not 100% sure but I think answer is no, B cannot reraise because the betting is capped there. The limit rather than big-bet rule applies so half a bet counts as a bet for reopening the betting. So in an analogous situation where C made the second rather than the third raise, betting would be reopened.
But in standard NLHE B can't reraise there either, right? Because in proper NL an insufficient reraise (anything < 18) wouldn't reopen the betting. (FWIW A can't reraise above because the betting is capped, but A could reraise in proper NL because A never acted on B's reraise to $30 so C's action is irrelevant.)
For added fun it's very house-dependent whether straddles count as a raise or not.
