    Is anyone looking for 30-40 Craig ammo? I have 2 boxes and some brass for sale or trade. Also have 2 boxes 8mm Mauser for sale or trade.

    Wow. Some golden oldie chamberings from deer camps past, for sure.

    Back in the late 1970s, my father hand loaded 30-40 Krag for an elderly widow who sat in a deer stand in the shelter belt behind her farm. Krag ammo was getting hard to find back then, so dad kept her supplied as long as she brought the cases back. She shot no more than 5 times per year, 3 times at a target to make sure the sights were still on…

    Nice to get ammo like this out to people who can use it.
