you are going to have a hard time with this, the .310 rook uses a 'heeled' bullet much like the 22 l.r., you will need a crimp die like lee makes, they make some odd ball dies and I'd try them. other wise the .32/20 is very close so you may be able to modify a set. bullets are another matter, the closest I've found is a Lyman mould for the .32 cal muzzel loading pistols. dia. should be about .318 to .320 depending on your barrel. 0 -
Both RCBS and C&H make dies for big bucks. Old NDSF dies are made from unobtanium. I've only seen used dies come up once in about 20 years, and they were gone in a couple of hours.
Lee is starting to sell .310 Cadet dies in Australia, and the forecast is that they will be offered in the USA in a few months. Someone ordered some from Australia. I have not heard further.
Bertram and Buffalo make cases, and when you have a case for a single shot, dies may never be needed.
The heeled bullet mould is available from RCBS and at least two other makers. The bullet is just thumb-seated in the case without sizing or crimping, then dip-lubed after loading.
