From the dimensions and look of the inside, Its very likely for .44 caliber.
Soldiers armed with revolvers required specific cartridge boxes. These show up in three sizes, which vary not by the caliber of the ammunition, either .36 or .44, but by the configuration of the packs in which it came- some paper wrapped, some wood bored out for six rounds, and some with a seventh hole for a packet of percussion caps.Not intended to have magazine tins, these boxes have additional leather sections fixed inside that kept the moister and cartridge packs in place by friction.
The box is in good condition and on the back of the pouch shows the manufacturer information as:E. GAYLORDCHICOPEE.MASS.
Emerson Gaylord was a firm located in New York and was a major contractor to the U.S. for leather gear during the Civil War.
