I was lucky to win a little auction here today. These Rook & Rabbitrifle are quit rare in these parts where I live. I have handled these guns many times over the years and thought one day I ought to have one..just one. Preffered a HH in the .300cal Rook(.295).

Nice find! The rook rifles are great little small game shooters.
 
Really nice rifle. What do you feed these rook rifles? Is there still commercial ammo for it, or it is handloading only?
 
297/300 H&H aka 300 Cadet. There is 310 cadet. 300 rook.

You can either buy or form brass for about all of them.

PS @rigbymauser if you're looking for a period correct case for that rifle they are rare as hen's teeth here in the USA. I have an excellent condition one available if interested PM me.
 
Absolutely outstanding. Congratulations!
 
Very nice rifle!
