Anyone know who is making the .30-40 Brass for Graf's?

Thanks 'RedOak' for the 'heads up'.

I ordered some as well, only 100 pieces though. Not sure if it will be obvious who made it be visual inspection alone but I'll post what I find.

I got 200 of them. Hopefully they will have more around from time to time.

Down near the base of the case, PRVI brass has a circle out near the edge that Rem cases I have do not. Other brands may have the ring too. Parashooter has sectioned enough cases he ought to know.

Word on the street is that Graf's has already sold out. Hopefully, the right people took notice of how much sold, and how fast it sold. Maybe now, we'll see an increase in manufacture from Remington... and maybe PRVI will start manufacture under their name as well!

Yep. All gone. Time to start the wailing and knashing of teeth routine again.

I'm sure the clowns selling it for $3 and $4 apiece bought it up. I'll bet over the next few weeks you'll see an increase in the amount of Krag brass on GB but not a decrease in the asking price.

As an example I'll bet this is new production Graf and Sons 30-40 brass:

Interesting that there's no photo, LOL! I'll bet it is that Graf brass, although the current bid is the same price Grafs was selling it for. I'm betting that they expect the bids to rise dramatically!

No picture because it probably hasn't even arrived in the mail yet. ;)
