Picked up this 30.03 blank cartridge today at a local gun show for $1.
The bullet is made of paper and filled with 5 gr. of powder. Casing is tinned like the early 30-40 Krag cartridge. Head is stamped "FA 6 05" The earliest 1903 cartridge in my small cartridge collection.

Hardcase,
Not a bad show, the crowds where not there like a few months ago!

I have some from 1905 but the cases are brass.
Bill,
Do you recall the head stamp date on your cartidges?
Chuck
I think they were 1905, but I will have to find them to be sure.
