Take a look at these old 44s

I don't know how old these are, certainly into the era of "metal patched" bullets. I will pull one and check it out, but making the conservative guess I'm assuming they are "high velocity" loads. OK in a '92, but too hot for a '73 or Frontier Six Shooter, even modern clones. Note the lower crimp. Prevents setback in a tubular magazine I guess.

Found in a jar in my brother's basement. Origin unknown.

Also some Peters and Western 44-40 headstamps and a few W.R.A CO 44 WCF.
