Here's another alternative: Reload.

Almost every round I have put through my Krag in the last 10 years or so has been one I made with my trusty Lee Loader. You don't need a press or much of anything else. Just the $20-30 or so the Lee Loader sets you back, and your Krag brass from your gun. Modest handloads will allow brass to last 10-15 years; I have cases I have reloaded 4-5 times before they split.

Just realized my Lee Loader is a collector's item itself. came in the old cardboard box and has load data for Norma (!) powders. Far as I know, Lee still makes them, and for a shooter that doesn't burn through hundreds of rounds a session in their Krag the Lee Loader is all you will ever need.
