Check your headspace on that with ONE to 6 cutdown .45 Colt casings before proceeding on that...

(the .455 rim is a little thinner than the .45 Colt)

Also ejection--the .45 Colt rim isn't as wide, either. Possibly not enough to make a difference on your particular piece, but then again...

(If your Webley works out on both counts, that trick could save you some $$$ on buying brass. IF NOT--and you already ran them thru the trimmer: You just got a whole passel of brass that's of no use to anyone but maybe some of the .45 Colt derringer crowd wanting to roll off gallery loads)


I speak from experience on BOTH counts...

Or is "less chatter, more splatter" more your style? Then go see Varmint Vapor Vestry!
