I am going to say $15 was a very good price in "today's market".
38-55 is actually the parent round of the 30-30, so technically its the other way around.
You did good at that price.
will not hurt any thing, the 30-30 case can be reformed into several hard to find cases.
At the moment I just use the longer brass, but for $15 I'd snatched them also.
Good find.

Nope; parent case for the 30-30 is in fact the 38-55. 38-55 was first produced in the mid~late 1870's while the 30-30 came along in the 1890's.
The 38-55 came out in 1876, 2 yrs. after the 45-70.

That's a great deal.
The 1894 Winchester was chambered for the 32-40 and 38-55 first, then in 1895 the 25-35 and 30-30 came along as the first smokeless civilian cartridges.
