I have a Westly Richards single shot built on a Deely and edge action that shoots that round. Got everything needed to shoot it from Buffalo Arms. Don't know if they can ship to Australia.

I'm thinking your Westley is chambered for the 500/450 No.2 Musket cartridge.
Totally different animal to the 450No.2 Nitro Express.

500/450 No.2 Musket on left. 475No.2 Nitro on the right (at least close to the 450 No.2)


Please tell us about your Westley!

BTW I hadn't noticed this post before.

I have to say the "oval bore" comment does not sound like a .450 No.2 NE. Unless some other gentlemen on here could correct me, I doubt the .450 No.2 NE was made with an oval bore. Which sounds like an earlier cartridge.
