I have several 30-40 Krag Rolling Blocks and a Ruger #3.

Brass lasts forever in a good chamber.

Have heard same rumors about 30-30 for decades. Have a 25-35 Ackley that brass has been loaded 14 times without a single loss. Bet my 355 GNR will do the same.

Gary I would like to point out the obvious - Blake, 2018-06-09, 14:40

- I thougt the Krag was just a shorter .405 - WB, 2018-06-09, 14:57
  - Oh and the Krag’s rim is thinner than the 405 - Blake, 2018-06-09, 16:41
  - The Krag headspace on the rim so it should be consistent - Blake, 2018-06-09, 16:26

        I have had different experience with the 30-40 case... - Huey, 2018-06-09, 20:55
        The ancient cases I have worked fine. - WB, 2018-06-11, 08:17
