    Does not look like 30-30Win to me. More like 30-30AI.
    Actually . . . looks mixed. Some 40deg shoulders and some not. ---- SAWMAN

    Good eyes, I believe you are correct. It’s definitely not 30 30 anymore.

    Blowing up the above pic,and compairing this brass to my 30-30AI brass,the necks look too long. I also see at least two pieces of brass that appear to have stepped necks,like they were in the process of being reformed to a chambering other than 30-30Win or 30-30AI.
    Of course I will gladly default to the owner. --- SAWMAN

    Thanks... I didn't catch that...went from the description...guess I could blow it out :D It looks like a mixture of AI regular and some .30-30 that has been neck sized only.
