Cartridges of the World.  If you don’t already have this book in your library, I highly recommend it.  The original author Frank C. Barnes is long dead but the book keeps getting reprinted with new editors.  It’s really fun to read about the history of obsolete cartridges.  It seems that some new cartridges were no better than what already existed but were introduced to shake up the market.  Some of the old Winchester cartridges were also claimed by Marlin and Colt.

Available from Amazon in paper or kindle versions.  Older editions can sometimes be found at thrift shops and used bookstores.  Enjoy!
