    Take a look here:-

    Looks like some folks are using modded .32-20 WCF cases with a .323" handcast bullet. I guess you'd need to make up an expander plug for that as the .32-20 actually shoots a .312" bullet.

    RCBS do a purpose made heeled bullet. Some cadets fit the 32-20 case with no alterations........some need brass removing from the leading edge of the rim (or you can buy ready made brass from buffalo arms in the states or the austrailian Bertram brass. Dies can be a problem, 4D in the states make them.

    Thanks for all the replies.
    Yes,I can get new brass and dies,but I hoped maybe someone would have a used set---got to watch the pennies!!!
    I haven't measured it at all, but it is a military contract model,I would have thought it was a 'true'.310.
    The bullets---Andy Alwood does one to suit,and I would guess some RedDot or GM3 or similar would do for powder?
    I bought the rifle some time ago and thought it might be nice to try it. I fired one years ago,and,as I recall, it was a pleasant thing to shoot.
    It's a long term project so I will keep looking.
    Ta,
    David
