I'm down to about 80 rounds now and don't want to run low. 40..... I looked up the Buffalo Srms .45-60 ammo on their website. Their explanation states that the ammo is made with reformed brass. That tells me that it may have been cut down from .45-70 brass and it MAY have a .45-70 head stamp on it, NOT .45-60. If the proper head stamp is important to you, then were I you, I would check with Buffalo Arms that the ammo you buy has the proper .45-60 head stamp. And, at a cost of three dollars ($3.00) for each round, I would check to be sure......twice, and get names of those people I speak to there about it. It sounds like these MAY be cut down, and carefully reloaded shell cases, which MIGHT be a bit fragile when YOU attempt to reload them......depending on what “reformed brass” means to Buffalo Arms. Not my business, 40, just a flag, from my side to you. Cat Brules

I don't have time to wait, but thanks anyway.
Dutch Coroner Posted July 6, 2020 Posted July 6, 2020 Have you tried here? https://www.venturamunitions.com/ventura-heritage-45-60-wcf-305gr-rnfp-ammo-20-rounds/

Someone here will likely offer to gin some 50 rounds up for you. Cat Brules
Seamus McGillicuddy Posted July 7, 2020 Posted July 7, 2020 An outfit I recently discovered on line called Ammunition Artifacts has brass made from .45-70 cases for $35 per 20. They have a lot of hard to find brass. Seamus
