45-75 SS

[Mike]

To the cartridge collectors among us; have you ever seen a .45-75
Sharps cartridge that was headstamped ".45-75?" In the 1916 Winchester catalog this cartridge is shown with the .45-70 headstamp, however, that is a sketch and not a photograph. In my old copy of Cartridges of the World the .45-75 Sharps is shown with a ".45-75 S" headstamp, also a sketch. I've never seen one of the old original loads for the Sharps load in the .45-70 case and just wonder if anyone of you have seen one with the .45-75 marking. (I understand that Jamison made a rather short run of .45-70 cases with the .45-75 Sharps headstamp and they promptly sold out.) I might have asked this question before but hopefully some new eyes will see it. Shoot sharp, Mike
