HSM 30-40 Krag ammunition (model 3040Krag10N) loads the classic American military-turned-hunting cartridge with a 165-grain Sierra GameKing bullet, a lighter option than HSM’s 180-grain Krag load for shooters who want a flatter trajectory. The GameKing’s spitzer boat tail profile improves downrange energy retention compared to the round-nose bullets this cartridge originally used. HSM specializes in keeping vintage, hard-to-find cartridges like 30-40 Krag in production for shooters running older rifles. Each box holds 20 rounds of this classic big-game load.
