In perusing Pierre van der Walt's book I noted a highlighted passage.
He says John Rigby brought out the .45-2.4"-Match cartridge in 1870.
Done on a shortened .45 BPE 3-1/4", might have been with coiled brass case ?
Something to look into ...
Who did the .45-90-2.4" with drawn brass case first ?
John Rigby or Sharps ?
