Quote of adh-Dhahabi

The quote by adh-Dhahabi is either miscopied from the cited book or is unclear in its translation. My guess is miscopied since it's grammatically incorrect. Unless there is another similar quote, this is the quote from al-Khallal's entry in adh-Dhahabi's Siayr:ولم يكن قبله للإمام مذهب مستقل ، حتى تتبع هو نصوص أحمد ، ودونها ، وبرهنها بعد الثلاثمائة ، فرحمه الله تعالى . A very quick translation would be: "and there wasn't before him [al-Khallal] an independent madhab for the imam [Ahmad], until he chased after Ahmad's nusus (tn: I'm wary of translating this as 'texts'), recorded them, and provided proofs for them after the [year] 300."
