Hey josefidelity,

I am still using the same Lyman 30-40 Krag two die set I bought in the early 1960s. It was the first die set I ever bought, and, shortly after I started loading the 30-40, I bought my first Lyman mould blocks and handles. It was a two cavity mould that cast 150 grain Loverin design bullets in 30 caliber for my Krag. Later, I would find that 30 caliber cast bullet would work well in almost every 30 caliber rifle I ever tried. Before too many years went by, I found I had purchased many more die sets for many more cartridges and many more mould blocks. I have enjoyed it all these years, and I wish you the same.

Best wishes,
Dave Wile

I think every major manufacturer makes them.

You can order them from just about anywhere, including the manufacturers.

Your best bet is to check out a local gunshop or a show.

I'm using the set of RCBS dies my grandfather bought in the late 70's. My brother inherited my grandfather's Krag upon his passing several years ago. My brother asked if I would load the old brass he has. I agreed. Some of this brass is still labeled 30 USA. I didn't load that, but instead bought some new stuff from Midway. I can't wait to shoot it.
