Turn of the century dump, I was just wondering what caliber or anything about this...

It looks like a 45 long colt but not sure with that primer.We found a 45 long colt last weekend..Osage

Pistol casing. Primer was blown out. If you clean up the head of the case, it should tell you what it is.

It does look like a .45 long colt, with a very bad head space problem, because that primer has really been backed out. Does anyone know if the primer would have backed out like that if that cartridge cooked off in a fire? I've seen primers get completely blown out in fires, but don't have that much experience. Clean up the back of the case and let us know what the head stamp says.
