The .25 Stevens Short was an American rimfire rifle cartridge, introduced in 1902. [1] Developed by J. Stevens Arms & Tool Company, [2] it was intended to be a lower cost, less potent variant of the .25 Stevens, on which it was based. [1] It initially used a 4.5 to 5 gr (0.29 to 0.32 g) black powder charge; this was later replaced by smokeless.
The next rimfire cartridge was the .22 Short, developed for Smith & Wesson's first revolver, in 1857; it used a longer rimfire case and 4 gr (0.26 g) of black powder to fire a conical bullet. According to Berkeley R. Lewis, a firearms historian, this later Smith & Wesson cartridge was 'essentially the same as Houllier's 1846 patent'. [ 11 ]
