About the .310 Cadet

The cartridge of the BSA and Greener Martini Cadet training rifles issued to Australian cadets from the early 1900s, and a genuine piece of local shooting history. A 120 grain heeled projectile at around 1,200 fps, roughly a heavy .32-20, it is a quiet, mild small-game and fox round out to modest ranges. No factory ammunition is made today: owners reload using .32-20 brass or purpose-made cases and .321 to .323 projectiles.
