Located a set through WV Fred. Thanks
Great, the Sherwood is an interesting cartridge. The original ballistics were 140 gr bullet at 1400 fps.
I just tried Missouri cast 135 gr bullets with 4198 and they are accurate. My load was slightly higher than 1400 fps.

I have just been getting components together for a friend in Namibia to load a .300 & found a set of Home Made Whack A Mole type dies, I see the last owner (now deceased) was loading 110gr .30cal bullets as the rifle was gone not sure if it had a over sized or worn bore .
What caliber/size bullets have you guys tried ?
I’m always on the lookout for one myself, won’t be able to afford a nice hammerless break action Rook but a Martini type Rook I could do.

The 300 Sherwood uses a 0.300" bullet. I resize larger, hard cast bullets to 0.301". I also found 0.300" jacketed bullets that work well.
Is one was looking for an easy cartridge to reload and had a small action, I would recommend chambering the barrel for 32 H&R. Cases and bullets are easy to find.

I am again looking for 600 Nitro dies preferably RCBS 1 inch. The set I purchased previously are 1 1/2 inch and do not fit my die. Another member has graciously taken them off my hands. If anyone happens to have a set of 600 Nitro Dies that will fit my Rockchucker Supreme RCBS press, please shoot me a message and thanks in advance for any assistance you may have to offer!
