I normally just search and read but this search only posed more questions for me.
Comparing brass that I received with the 1875 C. Sharps (Krag headstamp) to recently acquired 30-40 Krag brass, I can't see how fire forming will get the case to the correct length. During my searches, I found that Krag brass requires stretching so off I went looking for case stretchers but it seems they only stretch .02" or so. The difference between the new Krag brass and those I received with the rifle is .19" to .20". So what gives? How do I fire form and stretch this Krag brass to 2.505"?
Thanks in advance for any help,
Ron
