This is the specimen listed on p. 91 of Fleming with the Lead Round-Nose Wax Filled Hollowpoint bullet loaded for Fraser   

Based on the 450 3 ¼" necked down.    

Introduced by gunmaker James Purdey during the late 1880's. Cartridges were loaded for Purdey by Kynoch and Eley         

Holland & Holland introduced the .400 H&H Magnum in 2003 with the intended purpose of hunting large and dangerous game animals. Holland & Holland didn’t make the .400 H&H Magnum cartridge available until 2008 in the United States. The cartridge works...

Only found with a shot charge in this case length. The case mouth is uncrimped.   

Probably from the late 1880's, this one has a rolled brass case and laquered iron base disk.

Developed in the early 1900's this was a very popular sporting cartridge in Africa and India. Loaded by various manufacturers and double rifles for it are still made. The meaning of the "S" denotes "STRENGTHENED" as it had a reinforced base for Nitro loads This very...

Not entirely sure about this one. According to the lists, the 400 Jeffery 3" was never loaded as a Nitro for Black cartridge. There is also no mention in Fleming about a Lead RN paper patched load. It might be a shortened 3¼" case. The bullet is not crimped in the...

Experimental load by Kings Norton, but there is vitually no information available on this. The originals are very rare. The specimen below is a replica made for collectors by OPM in South Africa. The headstamp would be K.N.M.Co.

Probably by Purdey, it was developed sometime during the late 19th century. Fleming lists 2 loads, namely a 230gr. and a 255gr. bullet

Later load with the MBLRN (Metal Base Lead Roundnose) bullet             

From the 1880's this is a 450 case shortened and necked down.

Relatively scarce cartridge, probably intended for target use. This is a new primed empty case.  

The third and rarest in a series by BSA, the other being the 26 BSA and the 33 BSA, this one was developed by BSA in 1921 for their sporting version of the P14 rifle. Not very successful and didn't last very long.    Bottom version made for collectors by OPM...

Proprietary load by Rigby, but cases in all probability made for them by Eley. The top specimen has a HP Lead bullet with wood peg and the bottom one has a hollow point lead bullet     

Same as the 380 Short, this was listed for both rifle and handgun. The full list will be shown in the handgun section.          

Fleming lists this on p. 81. It is exactly the same as the 380 short revolver cartridge. There are Eley boxes that stated these were for rifles and revolvers. I will list one as an example, but the rest will be listed under the handgun section.   

This is the rimmed version of the 375 H&H Belted cartridge and was launched in 1912.   The CHAA headstamp is that of Custom Hunting, Ammo & Arms, Inc., of Howell, Michigan. The turned brass cases were evidently made on contract by Red Willow Tool &...

First appeared around 1905. Chronologically this was the first of the series. This cartridge was unique in that it was the first to use a belt for headspacing rather than a rim or using the shoulder. Ballistics for the .400/375 were identical to the 9,5 Mannticher...

As with the 400/350 Nitro Express and the 350 No.2 Nitro being the same cartridge but with different (proprietary) loads, the 375 No.2 Nitro is the same as the 375 2½" FLANGED NITRO EXPRESS but with a different loading, in this case the heavier 320gr. bullet. See also...

This is the standard 375 FLANGED NITRO EXPRESS (2 ½") but loaded with the Fraser oblique ratchet bullet as a proprietary loading.   

Very popular cartridge dating from the beginning of the 20th century and survived until the mid to late 1940's                              

Proprietary load by Purdey based on the 450 3¼" shortened to 2.7" and necked down to .375". Ballistics are about the same as the 375 H&H Flanged.     

Another of the Rook/Rabbit rifles, but was also available in handguns          

Listed in the 1884 Kynoch catalogue and used in single shot target rifles as well a doubles. It has a higher shoulder than the 360 №.3 Gibbs.      

Developed by George Gibbs for use in single shot Farquharson action rifles, although doubles are known to exist. It is effectively a scaled down version of the 461 No. 2 Gibbs and might have been developed as a boys' rifle load.          ...

Designed by Eley by necking down the 450 3¼" Nitro Express. Proof Load C = Cordite              

This appears to be a rimless version of the 400/360 WESTLEY RICHARDS NITRO EXPRESS. It was listed in the 1912 Westley Richards catalogue and designed to be used in a bolt action magazine rifle. The headstamp is right on the edge, so it seems that existing case were...

Very popular cartridge during the early part of the 20th century. This load was listed by four manufacturers, namely William Evans, Fraser of Edinburgh, Purdey and Westley Richards. Slight differences in the case measurements, but otherwise the same. 360 NITRO EXPRESS...

Longest of the .360 straight case loads and was developed around the 1870's.   

This is the normal 360 2 ¼" NITRO EXPRESS, but loaded with Fraser bullet      ...

Listed by Fleming mainly with a 190gr. loading in MBLRN (Metal Base Lead Round Nose) or MBLRNCT (Copper Tip) except for one 200gr. load by Kynoch. Difficult to discern between this and the 360 2 ¼" DRAWN BLACK POWDER EXPRESS

Listed by Fleming with bullet weights ranging from 155gr. to 215gr. This was the black powder load and is interchangeable with the Nitro for Black Powder load.        

The bottom 2 specimens are interesting. They are GALLERY LOADS with deep seated lead balls. The bottom one is a cardboard covered rolled brass case. The text on the case states. "ELEY BROS  LONDON  ·360 GAGE

Comes in a variety of case lengths, colors and loadings    See also Hoyem 3 p.57

Developed by the Ross Rifle Co. The exact date is not known, but it appeared in the 1910-11 Eley Catalogue. Made by Necking up of the 280 Ross case, but was a short lived project.    The bottom cartridge is a replica made for collectors by OPM in South...

The famous London gunmaking firm of John Rigby & Co introduced this proprietary cartridge in 1908. This was at a time when "medium bore" calibres were utilised all over the world for soft-skinned game as well as for occasional use on dangerous game in open...

Cartridge for double rifles. As can be seen in other British sporting cartridges, the .400 is a bit confusing, because this cartridge is not based on any existing .400" case. On p.50-51 of BRITISH SPORTING RIFLE CARTRIDGES by Bill Fleming, he makes a distinction...

333 Jeffery loaded with Swift bullet          

Based on the 404 Jeffery case necked down it was a popular sporting cartridge in its day. The 1910-11 Jeffery catalogue listed it as the 1908 Model .333 Mauser Action Rifle.                    

This is the rimmed counterpart of the 333 Jeffery and was made for double rifles. new unprimed empty from KYNAMCO                 The last specimen is the same as the one that is in Woodin Lab as listed in IAA498 p. 38 ...

Introduced in 1921 by BSA for the P14 Sporting rifle. Same case dimensions as the rarer 40 BSA, but was shortened and necked down. One of three rounds by BSA, the other being the 26 BSA
