The 450 Colt/Boxer is ~ .685 overall case length.

455 MK-II ~ .747

45 Web ~.825

455 MK-I ~.885

Cowboy Spl ~ .893 same as 45 Acp and AR

45 S&W Spl/45 Frankford Model 1906 had two OAL case sizes: .919 & .923

45 Schofield ~ 1.100

45 Colt ~1.280

Rem-UMC 45 Short Colt ~ 1.102 (this is not the Schofield, it has a smaller rim diameter. And no military counterpart.)
