G-Day Mate,

The cart you have pictured is a .450/577 used in the Martini Henry single shot rifle.

This particular cartridge was made by Bertram Bullet Co (BB) in Seymour Victoria Australia. The other small icons on the base are Kangaroos.

Bertram made these a few years ago. Relatively common over here.

Regards Ozzi.
 
Thank you lads.
Worth owt?
I like to keep Joe happy as he always brings me some nice Ord.

Not even a pints worth!

To a shooter of that calibre it may well be worth about 2 squid as their are still plenty around for purchase-sory waffy not even worth a pint old chap!
