Aka .45-120 Sharps. Scarce and expensive - $3-5 each, but there's a tiny market for this.

thanks. I figured they where 45 120 or 110. I had a LOTT at one time and don't want to go down that road again

The 45-90 roughly matches the 458 Win Mag for case capacity, and a 45-120 would likely roughly match the case capacity of the 458 Lott.

are they 45-120 marked, there was also the 450 Nitro or Black Powder express cartridge which is 3 1/4" long too, they are not interchangeable. Found that out the hard way as i have a falling block chambered in the express cartridge. Basically impossible to find brass

They are marked 45 RCBS

If the case head is maked 45, most likely are 45-120 sharps cases, the 450 express is a british cartridge and i have always seen them marked .450

I’ve done a bit of google now they are most definitely 45-120 sharps or trim to suit

Yes I found them in my search. They look to be out of stock but price is still up. Spendy things I think I’ll throw them on the ee for someone to snag for a decent price
