How many different caliber's did a Norwegian Krag Jorgensen come in?
The Norwegian Krag came in only one caliber, 6.5x55mm Swedish, because in 1896 the Swedish and Norwegian armies decided to accept a common cartridge. However, the Swedes adopted the Model 1896 Mauser rifle, which was mechanically stronger than the Krag, and consequently most people feel that a Norwegian Krag should be shot with lightly-loaded ammo rather than full-power Swedish ammunition.
The Kingdom of Denmark also adopted Krag rifles, in 8x58mm rimmed, and the US bought manufacturing rights to build Krag rifles chambered in .30-40 US.
