The expander is the classic 41 Long Colt size......
0.386" inside diameter. That was the diameter of the heel portion of the heel-base bullet. The outside (forward part) of the bullet ran from 0.400" to 0.408". The hollow-base bullet was 0.386" full length. In a lot of years of looking, I have not found another cartridge that uses 0.386" bullets.
I think someone put the wrong expander in it when they shipped it years ago.
