38-50 Remington

Could someone provide a link to or post a dimensioned drawing of the 38-50 Remington case. Though I know that one can use either 30 Govt or 303 British as brass to make the case, I would like ot have the full dimensions and have not been able to find. Cartridges of the World, my usual reference has no drawing. 
Thanks.

No love for the 38-50 here? How about overall length. Anyone know that? Thanks.

Ammo Encyclopedia has the following:

Rim Thickness .070
Case Length 2.230
Rim dia:  .535
Base dia:  .454
Mouth dia: .392
Bullet dia:  .376

supposed to be the same brass as the .38-40 except 2.23 long instead of 1.77.
