Remington, Winchester and Hornady sell 30-40 ammo within pressure ratings of the Krag. But you need to know the condition of your individual rifle, which can only be assured by a competent gunsmith. Hornady is the most recent ammo supplier and seems to be more available. It is easier to find ammo/brass than just a few years ago. If you do find yourself shooting the Krag more often you may want to take up reloading. I can only suggest Lee reloading equipment since I have found it economical, provides fair quality cartridges, and has a good website with videos on how to reload. Brass is easy to order. You may find a gun shop with gun powder. I don't believe you can go wrong with IMR4350 powder. Get a good reloading manual. Otherwise, if you can find an adequate supply of ammo for your shooting needs, more power to you. Its just that a lot of us can't shoot a box per year and feel satisfied. ;)
