cartridge quiz

[RCS]

On the left is a black powder cartridge only used in a repeating US rifle, on the right side is a .45 Colt revolver cartridgeAttachment 16170

Wild guess - assuming it is something fairly common - .45-60 WCF, M1876?

[RCS]

time period is about right but not used in the Winchester Model 1876

Looks kinda like a Bullard cartridge.

Bullard is about ten years later, this quiz cartridge was factory loaded by Winchester with a 280 gr bullet

Ummm With that bullet weight the only cartridge I see in the WRA catalog is the .44 Evans New Model.

Attachment 16171Attachment 1617244 Evans NM is the correct answer. The 44 Evans is next to a 30-40 with the 1900 date

I've never even seen an Evans let alone be able to guess what the round was.
