On this and other forums the 1 5/8" case length 57 Snider ctg by Dominion Cartridge Co is called a "cadet" round. It certainly was not a reduced load since it was loaded with 5 more grains BP than the service round. All DCCo catalogues and box labels I have examied have said "for Snider rifles".
Can anyone post a pic of a DCCo box label or catalogue calling this a cadet cartridge?
