There are far more than 2 types of rifle cartridges. You might distinguish between rim fire and center fire, between rimmed and rimless, or straight walled and bottle necked cartridges. There are also long action and short action, target and hunting and metric and Imperial measurements.
Necked and straight walled.. 308 is necked and 45-70 is straight walled. There are also magnum, belted magnum and rimfire.
Ddepends entirely on which rifle- there are thousands of different cartridges, and different bullet types. Sorry-
There is no way to give you a brief answer. ONE of my reference books on cartridges is about 2 inches thick, and THAT does not have all of them. Rifle cartridges have been as small as .17 caliber, and as large as .200 caliber. There are thousands of different rifle cartridges.
There are many more than two types of rifle cartridges. It could be rimfire (.22LR) and centerfire (30-30 Winchester) It could be rimmed (.303 British) or unrimmed (.308) It could be black powder or smokeless powder, straight sided or bottle necked case.
No one answer, since there was no one Sharps Rifle. Some were single shot and used metalic cartridges, some used paper or cloth cartridges.
