I could not get this request to work in the classified section, so I will try here.

I would like to acquire one good condition, empty Winchester stamped, 45/60 casing.  This has to have the correct 0.629/0.63 rim diameter.  I want to use this just to check the function of an 1876 repro.

I cannot seem to get the time, to get to a local gunshow, to look for a casing.

If you have a piece of this brass that you would like to sell, PM the price and see if we can make a deal.

Thank you,
BRS

You can get modern 45-60 brass from Jamison, properly size dementions, and headstamped that will work perfectly in your repo rifle.

I thought I was wrong once, but I was mistaken.

King,

The specs listed for the Jamison brass show a rim diameter of only 0.62 not the original 0.629.  See link below and look below pictured brass.  Also, they call that 0.62 a maximum.
