I wrote Starline this morning:

Good Morning,

I am a long time shooter and reloader.  I load for many different cartridges, and I use Starline for many of them, but there is one that is now almost impossible to find anymore - the venerable 30-40 Krag (formerly known as .30 Army or .30 USA).  This round has existed for more than 120 years, and is still very much in demand.  There are hundreds of people shooting this cartridge on a regular basis, including hunters, match shooters, and recreational shooters.  I, along with dozens more compete with our original Krag rifles in registered Vintage Rifle Matches throughout the year.  Presently, only Remington makes live ammo, and only on a very limited seasonal basis… and no one is making brass for sale.   However, there is an enormous (and rapidly growing) demand for the cases. 

Is there a possibility that Starline start producing 30-40 Krag brass for bulk sale?  If so, this could be quite profitable as there are hundreds of shooters looking for it (I’d be good for several hundred rounds worth myself).

Thank you so very much for your time on this matter.

Very respectfully and with warm regards,
Paul Steinmayer


Let's see if they respone
