Title: My new toy
Post by justbob87 on Dec 16th, 2016 at 7:48pm
Hello everyone!! I am new to this forum. This is actually the first time I have used a forum. I look forward to hearing from everyone.

So, a few years ago, my Grandpa had passed away. I just received a rifle that was handed down from him to me. I got it yesterday. It is a Springfield Armory Model 1898 Carbine. I did some research and am fascinated by how old the rifle is. It is in great shape!

However, I seem to be having the same problem that I am sure many others are having. Where do you find .30-40 Krag ammo?! I have looked everywhere and it seems that it is a seasonal thing I guess. Hopefully some comes up soon. I am excited to try this bad boy out. So I figured I would get on a forum and figure out what may be the best thing to do.
I was wondering if I should get into reloading ammo. But I also assume that if we can't find the ammo, will it be as hard to find the components needed for reloads? Also, what all would I need to be able to reload? I have never done it before.

I look forward to getting some input from you all! Hope everyone is having a good day! Thanks!
