Gents,
Someone on here must have a 25-pdr cartridge case or two lying about the place. Could someone please provide me with some reasonably exact measurements of a 25-pdr cartridge case, please?
(1) overall length
(2) overall diameter across base (including rim)
(3) Primer pocket/primer diameter
(4) diameter of cartridge cylinder at base above rim (ie diameter not including rim)
(5) width/depth of the rim
(6) outside diameter of mouth (3.45-inches + brass thickness x2?)
Would really appreciate some assistance with this, please, as I cannot do some scale drawings without the data. I've scanned the manuals but these only seem to provide dimensional data for projectiles, not the cart case.
Thanks
Mike
