On the 2nd and 4th bullet, do you see the little raised brass "belt" on the base? That's it.
Not sure why it's there, I assume it's because of the higher pressures in a magnum round.

Sure, but I know there's a picture like the one on the .308 fam.

45-70
45 is bullett diameter, in the original loading, 70 was for 70 grain of blackpowder.

To further elaborate on the 45-70 concept, the second number was indeed the grains of powder, but at that time it was black powder. Took a lot more black powder then modern smokeless powder.

I remember reading that the belt serves no purpose.

Not sure if someone has already touched on this but .410 is thought to have been a converted shotgun from a bore rifle. That's why it's not a measure like other shotguns. If it were it would be a 68 gauge or something like that.

Truth. The belts no longer serve any purpose.

I have heard numerous times that a .40 is essentially the same thing as a 10mm. Is that true?
Posted on 6/28/12 at 8:17 pm to jsb29
Not exactly. The .40 is what they came up with to deal with the fact that the FBI couldn't handle the recoil from the 10mm.
Posted on 6/28/12 at 9:47 pm to jsb29
I have never heard that, but I have never loaded pistol ammo and tend to err on the side of tissue displacement when choosing pistol calibers (45 acp).

After a quick look, no. The 10mm>40 s&w, at least in terms of fps/energy. The FBI recoil comment males sense.

Pretty good people around here seeing as not one person made fun of the dude. The OT would have killed him.
Posted on 6/28/12 at 10:14 pm to INFIDEL
.40 SW is basically a 10mm short, like the 380 is a 9mm short

That is the way it appears, jack. Good analogy.
