Any information would be appreciated? Thanks Kaywoodie Founder Ancient Order of the 1895 Winchester "Come, shall we go and kill us venison?

You would do well to do a look over on AccurateReloading.com. it is not a BP cartridge, although there are a couple BP precursors. It is a good heavy hitter for game. Brass, bullets and load data are readily available. It is more of a parent case. Get out the Google machine, and crank the handle, lots of info out there.

Huntington's lists brass, btw. Buffalo also has brass: https://www.buffaloarms.com/9-5x47r-cases-bertram-formed-b-ber9-5x47r.html https://www.huntingtons.com/product-tag/9-5x47r/ This drilling shoots a 10X47R. I make brass from trimmed 348 brass and a 41 Mag pistol die set. It shoots 40 S&W .401 cast bullets. Last edited by luv2safari; 02/20/23.

The .348 brass works for the Vetterli (and I get excellent accuracy) but the extractor will fall off the case if it isn't ejected briskly. The Lebel brass is supposed to be closer to the correct thickness. I have some Lebel brass but have not turned it into 10.4 Vetterli yet.

So I disected one thinking the same thing. Better off buying the Bertram brass I believe. But thanks for the intel!

If not make one up! Compadre, I don’t have a clue. Found it on a site and bought it. Seen another almost the twin of this one on another site and it was like three times as much! 🤣🤣🤣. But that latter site is notorious for their proud pricing of things! 🤣. I plan on this old piece creating it’s own stories! More to come!!!
