Does anyone have any of this Bertram brass (or any other) they can spare. This is the Westley Richards BP round....I believe the shoulder length is longer than the No1 carbine, but shorter than the 3-1/4 500-450 Nitro.
Any leads or tips on how I could make brass from another .50 case would be appreciated too.

I have a 3 1/4 also AND a #1 Carbine. For the Carbine I used 50-70 brass. BUT there's over NINETEEN different 500/450's listed. There are different rim and base sizes as well as thicknesses.
Have you done a chamber casting? PM me the measurments and I'll try to help out.
