A friend of mine has just bought a lovely Marlin under-lever in .218 bee, he had some brass supplied when he bought the rifle but could do with some more -
I know it's a long shot but if anyone out there has or knows of any cases or ammo for sale for the 218 he would gladly buy them thanks

If it's the one from CPG then the lack brass was one of the reasons why I said no to it.
This shop might be some help
http://gunshop-eb.com/CF%20Sporting%20%20Ammunition.php it has 218 Bee ammo listed.

I have a .22 Rem Jet which has a parent case of .357 magnum it wasn't difficult to form the Rem Jet cases from these , the same could be done for the Bee with a 32-20 case , once the case has been annealed they can be formed in a sizing die .
