. 44 and a 95gr bullet?
Im looking at my (old) Cartridges of the World,, I see two cartridges that might be close to what you are looking for:
44 Long Centerfire
Or
44 Extra Long Ballard
A few other short 44a are listed but sadly none have cartridge dimensions.
Is it a straight wall or bottleneck case?
If its a bottle neck case its possible to be the 44-60 Sharps( necked). This says the case is1⁷/⁸" case.
All of these i mention have 200gr up to 396gr bullets.

I do know a guy who might be of some help to figure it out, he collects Ballards but knows these old single shots.

If you can figure out what you have you'll most likely need to form brass
