I wonder what EE would do to solve that. Those mags have the taper built in.

I’ve often thought about converting an 1895 Winchester in 30-40 Krag, to .303 B ,
or some semi-improved variant

303 British - another great , no venerable cartridge with a cachet of nostalgic cool .[/quote]

One of these days I'll get around to posting photos-There's one in each chambering living here. The 303 gets used rarely, as it's an original Winchester, it does go hunting in nice weather, though. The 30 US is a Miroku built piece, gets used a fair amount, and qualifies as one of my better gun show finds.
