Good pics.....some of you Smith owners are really good photographers...
Re: Fiochhi 455/small primers.......maybe saves them money? Not had any split even when reloaded, albeit with very light loads and fired thru my Triplelock and/or Webley Mk VIs.
I seem to remember reading about Colt had to offset/angle the chambers due to 455 rim o/d being slightly larger than Colt 45?

Here is some Buffalo Arms .455 Colt brass loaded with 255 gr Kieth type SWC's:
Here's another pic for reference:
When I got the Buffalo Arms brass I decided to go with the longer .455 Colt case since our bullets, like the one shown above, have more of the bullet in the case than the original type bullets do and I felt it would give me a little more 'room for error' since I'd never loaded the .455 before. They work well.
