So how about this. Shiloh Sharps 1874 falling block, 45-110 cartridge. I'm sure most of you have seen the movie Quigley Down Under. This is the same model rifle used in that movie. I believe this model was actually made for the movie then offered as a catalog option. For those not up on early American cartridge naming....i.e 45-110. 45 is the caliber in inches, in this example .459 inches. 110 is grains of black powder in the case. There are 7000 grains in a pound. Sometimes the bullet weight in grains is attached to the name. So this cartridge that I shoot might be called 45-110-540. Now, the older guns might have just caliber and case length engraved on them. So this gun is labeled .45 2 7/8" and the ammo company would label the cartridge depending on bullet and powder weight.

it is a positive collodion image on aluminum. it is basically an underexposed negative with a black backing making it appear a positive. because it is black aluminum it is not possible to flip the neg over to view it.
