Hi William,
  Have you considered using one of the old Packard shutters?  I question 
whether even these were made in large enough diameters, but you could try 
checking eBay.
  I am very curious about just what sort of internal shutter this lens has 
that could ever come anywhere near to a speed of 1/300th sec., in view of 
the large diameter of the lens.  I think that the largest diameter studio 
shutters such as the No. 5 Ilex shutters had a smaller diameter than you 
need, and still didn't even reach 1/100th sec. as a top speed. (???)  RKS
