    WTB: 30-40 Krag Dies & Brass

    Hey there, I'm putting out a feeler for a gentleman from my local church. I had knee surgery a couple weeks ago and I'm stuck in a brace for the next 3 months. I have PT 4 days a week and my wife is 7 months pregnant so the church has offered to help drive me to PT. The gentleman who was driving me today has driven me a couple times and we got on the topic of old guns. He has a 30-40 Krag he has not been able to shoot much because he can't find Krag ammunition. I told him I cast 30 caliber bullets and I gave him a ziplock bag full of them but I didn't realize he didn't have 30-40 dies and he says he only has a box (I assume 20) of Krag brass.

    Does anybody out there have some dies and brass they aren't using for a Krag rifle? Thank you for your reply.

    I don't have 303 Brit and I don't know what he has... I was able to find some 30-40 brass, but I'm still looking for dies. curdog007 and I are trying to figure out payment before he sends the Herters dies to me. I usually send Paypal friends/family but he doesn't accept Paypal. Because of my current situation (unable to drive with my leg) and living way out in the country with a post office that doesn't keep regular hours or staff, I still haven't been able to catch the post office.

    I had a “notify me” at grafs, and the set was in-stock at PSA.

    Grafs should still have brass, too.
