A decent write up is at: Romanian Peabody Martini The cartridge is farily close to, but not an exact copy of the WR No.2 Musket. Dies are available from CH-4D, which IMHO are well worth it to return the rifle to the range. However if you have a variety of BP dies, you likely can cut a 50-90 case to length and then through using multiple dies get a case to fit and then fireform to your chamber, giving you perfectly formed brass. While doing it this way is a tad crude for some, the finished product is virtually identical to one formed using "correct" forming dies.
