I can see something like that happening, especially if you reload a lot. At one time I had a .45 Colt and a .44-40, and it was pretty difficult to tell the cartriges apart at arm's length. I suppose it's just as well the .44-40 didn't work properly, so I didn't keep it. Now the only large-bore revolver cartridge I have is the .45 Colt. Does make mixing up my ammo a LITTLE less likely.
