.45 Winchester Magnum
edit.45 Winchester Magnum links directly to this page for some reason; if this cartridge has its own page under another name I am unable to find it. In addition, there is a link in this article to .45 Winchester Magnum, i.e. it links to itself. Hamiltondaniel (talk) 08:37, 20 May 2010 (UTC)
Infoboxesetc
editThis is the current form:
| Name | Case type | Bullet diameter | Case length | Rim diameter | Base diameter | Shoulder diameter | Neck diameter | Cartridge length |
|---|
I recommend changing it to this:
| Name | Case type | Bullet diameter | Neck diameter | Shoulder diameter | Base diameter | Rim diameter | Case length | Cartridge length |
|---|
This is, to me, a more rational description, esentially running top to bottom. We might also include primer size and type. I made several additions, relying on Barnes & Amber's Cartridges of the World (DBI, 1976). Trekphiler 18:30 & 18:36, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
What does "Cartridge length" mean? Does it mean maximum overall length? That changes depending on the firearm and the bullet used. Pigoutultra (talk) 20:43, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
Not so Sharps
editI deleted this:
| Name | Case type | Bullet diameter | Case length | Rim diameter | Base diameter | Shoulder diameter | Neck diameter | Cartridge length |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| .45-120 (Sharps) | 11.63 (.458) | 82.55 (3.25) | 15.44 (.608) | 12.85 (.506) | N/A | 12.19 (.480) | 94.74 (3.73) |
The .45-120 Sharps, as described in COTW, is:
| Name | Case type | Bullet diameter | Case length | Rim diameter | Base diameter | Shoulder diameter | Neck diameter | Cartridge length |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| .45-120 (Sharps) | rimmed straight | .451 | 3.25 | .597 | .506 | -- | .490 | 4.16 |
I'm not sure what the .458 is, but it seems to resemble the .45 Sharps Straight, which is a rebadged .45-70 Government.
In addition, I'd ask, where are the .44 Evans Short, .44 Ballard Extra Long, .44-100 Wesson, .45-125 Win, .44-60 Sharps & Rem, .45-50 Peabody, .45-80 Sharpshooter, .404 Rimless Nitro, .500/465 Nitro Express, .444 Marlin, .44-40 Win, & .475 A&M Mag (wildcat), to name just a few from COTW.
