I'm a member of "The Brass Bank" on FB.  Nice bunch of guys for the most part, but you have to be accepted as a member of the group via request.  I've purchased some brass there... but just so everyone knows, 30-40 brass is a very rare commodity there.  Most of the people in that group are selling brass that they pick up at ranges.  Some good deals... and some not-so-good deals!  I'm betting that most shooters save their 30-40, which is why it just doesn't come up much, IMHO.

I'd be in for a couple hundred if they do!

I am of that mindset too when it comes to keeping the brass that I shoot.  I am also buying loaded ammo where and when ever I find it even though I have a hundred boxes of the stuff from ten years ago when I was rolling in dough.  I would have to dig through a ton of other stuff to get at it.  It is just easier to buy from the lgs.

This might be what the doctor ordered.  Might help.  Might not but have a look.

there is a company called jamison brass and ammunition. if you would go on there website you will see the large  number of cases    that they manufacture. don't laugh too hard when you see that  many of them can be eaisly formed from a parent brass. they also produce many obsolete straight wall cases that there can't be the demand that there is for 30-40. i e-mailed them a couple months ago stating pretty much what i'm writing now. as you would  suspect; no reply. they are"missing the boat"
on another note in a search for brass. going on the shooting websites has pretty much dried up the supply. use alternative site searches. i live in pa. there is a site called pennswoodsclassified.net. i ran a ad it the reloading and ammunition section and got 2 hits that resulted in 45 pieces 18 factory loaded. another site; this one for trapshooters (which i am) also yeilded 2 hits. one for 250 pieces. the other for 1loaded factory rem. box and the mate that was a once fired box. what i'm suggesting is try other  avenues. how about an ad in the local newspaper, the bulliten board at the gunclub ( most shooters don't know how scarce this stuff is

I inherited by grandfather's 30-40 when my father past a couple years ago.  The rifle was used by my mother's father and was probably last fired around 1965.  I am interested in getting this rifle back into firing condition.  However, as several postings have noted, the ammunition and reloadable brass is getting expensive and hard to find.  Therefore, the idea of a "group buy" appeals to me. 

I noticed that the last posting to this thread was from mid-May 2016 and it is now the end of July. 

So my questions are.....

Has anyone been able to confirm that Remington will be making the "rumored seasonal run" of .30-40 Krag brass? 

And if Remington is planning a production run, then is an effort underway to prepare a group order from the KCA members?

If a group order is being prepared, then I would interested in getting more details.  Since I don't already have a significant inventory of brass casings or loaded ammunition, I could be interested in 500 (or more) new brass reload casings, if the price is not too excessively high.

My son and I have sent emails to Hornady, urging them to produce 30-40 cases and ammo. They have sent replies mildly hinting that the request will be considered.

Hornady produces several lower volume cartridges and I told them that they would likely have this product/market to themselves.

Why don't several of you members also contact Hornady and make this request.
