Got a ? if I may; Im not up on civil war stuff I usually hunt way to far west to be concerned;
However I have a cartridge case question; I found a couple of 58 rimfire cartridge cases; 58-60-500 for the 1865 Springfield. they are rough cases and not special at all but what i was wondering is how common a find are these cases??
Also can anyone tell me the name of the ignition system that is a rimfire combustion system but the firepin placement is in the center of the case making just a small dimple in the case Not using a primer ? dont think i ever heard of the name of this type system.???
Thanks for the help
