Re: Another mystery 500/450, this one by Thomas Turner

!925 date is doubtful, records indicate the Thomas Turner of Fisher Street closed in 1912

According to Bill Fleming's book "British Sporting Rifle Cartridges" the .500/.450 3 1/4" Black Powder Express was offered variously in 270, 325, and 365 grain bullets while the Nitro for Black Powder cartridges were offered in 365 grain bullet by Kynoch & Eley, also with Eley offering a 325 grain bullet.
H&H BP Express ammunition was offered in 330 grain and 375 grain bullets as well as a 475 grain bullet loading.
