An extremely rare “Climax Cartridge Loader” by James Dixon & Sons of Sheffield.

From the James Dixon catalogue of 1883….”The Climax is the only loader offered to the Trade that blocks automatically when the cartridge cases are loaded, and that can be guaranteed not to cut the shot in working; it excels all other machines of the kind for simplicity of adjustment and accuracy of measurement, and has been pronounced by competant judges (to whom it was submitted for experiment) to be mechanically perfect.”
