How about the 9x20? Anybody know the US name of that cartridge?

9mm Browning Long. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/9mm_Browning_Long

Don't know if that is the US name or not.

Huh, I just learned something new... Didn't know about the 9mm Browning Long. Apparently, that's the true 9x20. The one I was referring to was the .38 S&W but I guess technically it's a 9mmx20R. The R was for rimmed. My grandfather, before he passed 20years ago, gave me an old revolver that was chambered for that round. Gave me a bunch of ammo too. One of the boxes was only labeled 9x20R, the rest were .38 S&W. Never shot that gun, and don't have plans too.
