Can you recheck those measurements. Nothing close in any of the charts I found with a .375" bullet diameter. Your bullet diameter might be off, build up on the bullet? Neck Diameter should be right around the crimp anyway.. Maybe 38-70Win? or something like that, close to those measurements.

    Thinking maybe a 40-70 Remington or 40-70 Sharps Paper wrapped bullet at one time? Lead bullet corrosion?

    The shim stock on the case head almost looks like what you'd do if you were using the case and the shim stock to make a No-go or Field headspace gauge. Past that, .44-77 Sharps and Remington looks pretty close, but not exact.
