Introduced in the 1880s, the 44 Bull Dog cartridge was an American design and only prduced in the United states for the British 44 Webley revolvers and later in American Harrington & Richardson (H&R) revolver and a few other makers.

It was produced as a “less recoil” cartridge for the 44 Webley revolvers and it was only produced by American and Canadian manufacturers.
