There's no such cartridge as the 45 long colt

[David Mikronis]

Yes sir, you are correct. My Ruger Redhawk and my S&W 25-5 both say 45 Colt as do my reloading dies plus EVERY piece of 45 Colt brass.

I agree.When it came out in 1873 it was simply a .45 Colt. If you look at the barrels on a Anaconda or a S&W 25-5 it says .45 COLT not Long Colt.
