This loading developed a maximum velocity of 2,000 ft/s (610 m/s) in the 30-inch (760 mm) barrel of the Krag rifle, [8] and 1,960 ft/s (600 m/s) in the 22-inch (560 mm) barrel of the Krag carbine. Due to its dimensional similarities .303 brass can be annealed and pressed into .30-40 dimensions in a full-length sizing die. A converted .303 case ...

The Norwegian coastal artillery chose to keep their K98k's in their original 8x57 mm chambering, while the Norwegian Army and Norwegian Air Force rechambered their rifles at Kongsberg Våpenfabrikk. .30-06 was chosen, as this was the standard of the U.S. Army at that time, but the barrels were only marked as "7.62".
