    If you do not get any info try the british militaria forums or assra.com. Now having said that the 300 sherwood is similar to the 310 cadet cartridge. I would first slug your barrels to see what the dimensions are. 310 cadet cases can be made from 32-20 cases. Buffalo arms may have the cases and bullets and dies that you need.
    Hope this helps. Frank

    Do a search for rook rifle and there should be a couple of threads come up. Our aussie members can add a bit of knowledge to your tool chest, hopefully one of them will be along soon.
