.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)[reply]

Infoboxesetc[edit]

This 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)[reply]

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)[reply]

Not so Sharps[edit]

I 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. Trekphiler 19:10 & 19:31, 12 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If you have the information at your disposal and they all belong to the 11 mm class, then please feel free to add them... this is how WIkipedia must grow. --Deon Steyn 05:29, 13 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

.45 Winchester Magnum redirect[edit]

Hi,

Can someone remove the redirect of for the .45 Winchester Magnum as the cartridge can have its own page. Thanks! DeusImperator (talk) 00:20, 5 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
