Non-notable cartridge. Of the two sources in the article, one is to what appears to be an unreliable reloading forum/blog, and the other is to a book published by CreateSpace, which is a self-publishing company. [1] only mentions the .585 Gehringer in one sentence. This is a mirror so blatant it even keeps the ammunition stub tag with "improve Wikipedia" at the bottom. This book is based on Wikipedia content. This is an unreliable forum. Everything else I'm finding is either in web forums or in WP mirrors. Not notable, and has been tagged as such since 2014.

Keep I put this page in for 149.135.122.72, so I will support its continued inclusion on their bahalf. It is pretty unlikely we can track down the original author. The argument will be that Wikipedia is better off with this article than without. Unfortunately link-rot has lost us access to the first reference.

Delete. All I can see are mirrors and forums. Doctorhawkes (talk) 00:16, 29 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
