Hi I am looking for any reloading information for a 8x58 Krag-Jorgensen.
Does any one know if the Lee crimp die in 8x57 will work for the krag.

Why do you feel the need to crimp?

Hello
The 58r Krag and the 57 Mauser have totally different case dimensions

I’ve only used this calibre in a rolling block so didn’t see the need to crimp
