A clearinghouse for information, reloading data, history and just about anything else concerning the 7 x 61 Sharpe and Hart cartridge.

Well, believe it or not, Norma is still making new brass for Sharp and Harts. Midway USA has some available. It's not cheap, but all and all, fairly reasonably priced, and a lot simpler than fire-forming your own.
I recently purchased a 50-year-old 7 x 61 Sharpe and Hart. I really like the gun, but I didn't realize just how obscure the cartridge is anymore until I did a web search and came up dry. I'm hoping to gather reloading information, general facts about the cartridge, and anything else that proves interesting here.
Send me Sharpe and Hart stuff
Do you have a rifle chambered for 7 x 61 Sharpe and Hart? Send me a photo. Have some loads that have worked well for you for this cartridge, share them with the world (or at least with the two or three dozen of us out there still shooting these things).
I grew up with guns and enjoying shooting and reloading. I seem to be particularly attracted to obscure things, so long as they work. Owning a 7mm Sharpe and Hart fits well with that. And I'm an Anglican priest, which is also a bit obscure.
