The charge probably comes sometimes from the period around the year 1871, it was originally designed for the carbine Westley Richards 1871, along with it was developed even charge .450 Number 1 Musket (2-5/16 inch case)in brackets is the length of the shell casings for the rifle 1869 from the same manufacturer. Even if the charge of "carbine" according to the older weapon, apparently, was taken up in a carbine. According to his emergence should be approximately the same, so the year 1871. certainly not much later, the version that first made weapons (it's a one-shot rifle with the block finally) and only after years of ammo is probably not real.
