This is so sad. 25 years ago, people formed cases for the .303 from all the Krag brass on hand. Now 30-40 Krag brass is like a conservative politician. People say they exist, some claim to know where some are but no one can show you any. Peter said:

All blessings upon Saint John Moses Browning Totally want. Actually, you get the .30-40 one, have it rechambered to .30-40 Krag Ackerly Improved. Straight case wall, 40 degree shoulder.
