.300 Rook rifle ammo?


Recommended Posts

Hi folks,

 

My friend has a Purdey .300 Rook rifle (very nice) and is down to his last few bullets!

 

I have tried to find some ammo for him as a suprise, but to no avail. There has been some ammo online but this is for collectors and is in excellent boxes and value of around £250 for 50 bullets, that is £5 a shot :yahoo:

 

Does anyone on here reload this round or know someone who does, even if its around the same price as above the round will not be 40 years old if not older!!

 

Thanks in advance for your help,

 

Dean :)

I suggest your friend starts loading his own. North Devon Firearm Services (NFDS) made dies for 300 Rook and I've seen lead bullets and new brass cases (Bertram- Australia) for sale at the Bisley Arms Fairs. The old cases were berdan primed and they can be a pain to reload. Most people I know who had rook rifles went for new boxer-primed cases from Bertram.
