Their eyes would really glaze over if they received a request for the .41 Long Colt.

Could be worse. You could be asking them for .45-60 WCF or .455 Self-Loading. That's .455 Self Loading and not .455 revolver. Got a Webley Mark IV from the Boer War years and can easily feed it.

I can make .45-60 easily enough from .45-70 brass, but that .455 Self-Loading has proven a surprisingly difficult customer to round up. It's the obsolete cartridge that has come closest to stumping me.
