Found a few of these, along with similar 38 WCF rounds

Some are older than the others.

Found this in an old roll top desk many years ago

The 44 G.G. is for Marbles Game Getter combination gun.

Opps. A couple 44 Colts got in the shots. Mostly 45 Colt with a couple 45 S&W and a couple 44 Colts

I could use some help to clarify what these cartridges are. They all measure as 44 cal. bodies and bullets are 0.0440 +/- 0.002" I think I have 4 ea. UMC 44 RF short and one USCC 44 RF short. One unknown maker 44 RF extra-long, One UMC 44 RF long and 3 Winchester 44 RF long, one is a bit different than the other two and I wonder if any of these are 44 Henry?

I am pretty sure these are uncommon enough to be consider rare. They were not common even when they were new. 38-44 target and 38 RF Extra Long.

And a couple box insert shot shell ads.

The boxes are missing flaps and the Peters is only brass mostly fired. The one shown is probably not with the original primer.

Hint, one was not for caps. It had caps in it when I got this lot and it by itself was worth the cost of the lot although it is not something I normally collect. I was surprised at how big the musket caps are. I had not seen ones this big before. Two of the tins had labels on the back so I included pictures of those back sides. I got these just yesterday.

These boxes are all sealed, so I don't have sample cartridges or headstamps to show. I think the ones that don't say Smokeless are black powder loaded.

Not really odd just a bit odd. CB caps, shorter than shorts, 32 rf long shot shells and 32 rf short blanks.

The Peters box of 32 S&W is sealed so the sample cartridges are some others I have and may not be totally representative.

Hi all,
You come highly recommended- can anyone help, please?
Thank you!

I included some shots of the sides of some of the boxes this time.

I have more but they are more modern, these are my oldest boxes of 25 Stevens Long. I have some short that I will post another time.

700gr brass solid at 2,300 ft/s

Both boxes have damage, the 250 Savage box is full the 22 Savage is empty. I don't have a single round of 22 Savage

Sad the Winchester box is damaged so badly.

Quick showing today.

New piece I just got. Soviet 5.45x18, possibly fired, or failed to fire. Still a nice refference piece.

2 dots headstamp should indicate" Jurjuzaňskij mechaničeskij zavod Jurjuzaň manufacture.

Cheers

The top package is an antique Portuguese ammunition packet for the kropatschek rifle. manufactured in the Barcarena gunpowder factory with wooden-bulleted blank practice rounds. They were produced in 1889. There is no headstamp.

The bottom package is a vintage French military ammunition packet containing 8 cartridges of 8mm Lebel. It contains the Model 1932 ammunition with a heavier bullet meant for machine guns or rifles modified to handle higher pressures. Made in 1939.
