| - The round gained popularity in Australia, New Zealand and the United States when thousands of Martini Cadet rifles were sold by the Australian government after World War II.
- The .310 Cadet, also known as the .310 Greener, or the .310 Martini, is a centerfire rifle cartridge, introduced in 1900 by W.W. Greener as a target round for the Martini Cadet rifle. Firing a 120 grain heeled lead projectile at 1200 ft/s the round is similar in performance to the .32-20 Winchester and many rifles may chamber both rounds with some accuracy. This is NOT meant to imply that such a practice is generally advisable, or that both bullets are safely interchangeable, although for reloading purposes the 110-grain .32-20 bullet may be used in a .310 cartridge (being only marginally narrower).
