I would like to start loading blackpowder cartridges for my 1874 Sharps. I was looking at the various dies for the rifle and noticed there are 45-70 Sharps, 45-70 WCF and 45-70 Government. Which ones do I need?
There is, or was no 45-70 Sharps.
They had what was called a 45-75 Sharps Straight, or Sharps 45-2 1/16" in 1876. It was sometimes called the 45-70 Sharps.
But it too was identical to the 45-70 Gov / 45-70 WCF.
