@14bcstitles Not correct. The 39 in the cartridge name is the length of the shell casing (the shell casing is 39mm long). Understandable mistake, though. Back when smokeless powder was being used as a propellant, the last number in a cartridge's nomenclature was the amt of black powder in the casing. .45-70 had 70 grains of black powder. .30-30 WCF had 30 grains of black powder. :)

@14bcstitles Not correct. The "39" in the cartridge name is the length of the shell-casing (the shell-casing is 39mm long). Understandable mistake though. Back when black-powder was being used as the propellant, the last number in the cartridge name was how many grains of black powder was in the shell casing. .45-70 Gvt had 70 grains. .30-30 WCF had 30 grains. Naming cartridges in this fashion was abandoned after smokeless powder was developed. :)
