[QUOTE="Lovetahunt, post: 913122, member: 76917"] Greetings, I just picked up a custom 1903 Springfield chambered in 30 Gibbs. I am a bit of an 1903 nut and have several ranging from 30-06, 25-06, 30-06 Ackley, 270 and even a 22-250. This Gibbs just complements the collection. I need any info on fire forming brass, alternative dies (30 Gibbs dies are expensive) and anything else one might find useful about loading this round. I am no stranger to the loading bench but figure there is no sense in recreating the wheel when someone out there is sure to have good information. A 2 die set is $145.00 and new brass is $41.00 per 20. I am not afraid to spend the cash but am not a fan of spending it when there are less expensive alternatives. This should prove to be a fun open country rifle for hunting the Dakotas and am eager to see how the rifle prints a target. Any info will be appreciated. [/QUOTE]
