Great information guy’s!
I wouldn’t mind finding one of those High Walls in the Rimmed Navy Cartridge! Then again, I’m sure a few others wouldn’t mind finding one either. I’ve always kept it in the back of my mind, after I learned from Bert’s survey, the numbers, and figured, just how hard they are to find.

Anthony, the rimmed cartridges bring a premium over the semi rimmed. Winchester brings a premium over UMC. Normal Military full metal jacket cartridges can bring between $20 to $40 a piece. The rimmed ones are 4 to 5 times that to someone that needs them. Commercial soft points don’t have the value of the Military ones. As far as I know no rifles were made for the rimmed experimental cartridges for sale to the Military or public.
Winchester manufactured a small number (21) high-wall Single Shot rifles in 236 USN rimmed.

That’s interesting. Are you sure they are the full rim not the semi rimmed? That would be a cool rifle. I posted this before but the 2 on the left are the full rimmed. I just noticed that the middle one is Milbank primed. That is the style primmer that was used in the first 1873 44 WCF box.
The Milbank primed, was a surprise also!
