40-70 Sharps Straight,40-90 Sharps Straight, 405 Winchester, might be a few more. The 405 Winchester is as close to a 40-70 S.S. as you can get, and some rifles are chambered in "40-70 S.S." but chambers are cut to accept the thicker rim.Brass and dies are available for about any of the old Sharps cartridges and with some work with modern powders and modern rifles they shoot pretty good.
