Product Description
An original .318 Westley Richards inert cartridge, one of the classic British sporting calibres developed during the golden age of big game hunting and safari rifles.
Introduced by Westley Richards in the early 20th century, the .318 W.R. (Westley Richards) became highly regarded for its excellent balance of power, accuracy, and reliability. The calibre gained a strong reputation throughout Africa and India as an effective medium-bore sporting cartridge suitable for a wide range of game.
The .318 W.R. is closely associated with high-quality British sporting rifles and the famous era of pre-war hunting expeditions, making original cartridges increasingly collectible among enthusiasts of classic British firearms and safari history.
This example retains authentic period appearance with attractive age-related patina and strong display appeal. Original British sporting cartridges such as the .318 Westley Richards are becoming harder to source, particularly in good condition, and are highly desirable for collections focused on British sporting ammunition, safari rifles, or vintage hunting history.
A superb addition to any cartridge collection or historical display.
