MGC .45 Rounds

I’m looking to make some rounds for my Hudson Thompson and I was wondering if there are major differences between the .45 CP/HW rounds for the Thompson and the full size (not the small two colour ones) .45 rounds CP/HW ACP for the Colt 45s.

They have a different "bullet tip" but are the dimensions the same Question

Hi 'ace

I've got both types of .45 cartridge. Would it help if I sent you one of each to examine?

Cheers Cerwyn Very Happy

I have the Thompson type but I’d like to take a look at one of you colt ones as I think it looks more "real" with the bullet tip.

Some reason the web page with all of the cartridge drawings isn’t working now Sad

which is a shame as it was a great source of cartridge compatibility.

I'll put one in the post to you mate.

I've no access to my CAD program these days otherwise I'd have a try at drawing the cartridge types I own myself.

Wonder if anybody else can help out or re-direct to the information pages you quote above?
