Musket No2 - Cartridge cases
      #140281 - 10/08/09 04:46 AM

Good day all

I am a South African memeber, who recently acquired a Westley Richards No2 Musket. The Martini Patent action with Henry Patent Rifling for No2 cases.

The problem is that in South Africa, there are no cases avalaible for this calibre anymore. As such i would like help in aquireing turned brass cases for reloading purposes.

Even info regarding where i can source these cases will be welcome.

Thanking you in advance

Contact Andrew at Classic Arms in Witbank and see if he can get the brass for you.

The cases can also can be made from 50/90 cases.

You might also contact Roger Engle care of Magnum Magazine. He shoots a Musket No. 2 and should be able to tell you where he got his. Roger is a good guy and always willing to help.

A few years ago I had these people turn some for me. http://gscustom.co.za/ They worked fine but took them 16 months to send them to me. If you live near them maybe you could use a cattle prod or something.
