Title: Re: Krag Ammo question
Post by knute on Jun 15th, 2011 at 3:55am
As long as your guns are in sound condition it should be ok. Pointed bullets do not create a safety problem in a Krag as far as I know, unlike a tubular magazine where the cartridges are stacked with the bullet against the primer in front of it.
But if you look at previous posts some have had difficulties running a pointed cartridge through their Krags. Round nose bullets seem to be smoother. If you have difficulty with your Krags you can always load them one at a time. Quite a few say they like the 180 grain to 220 grain round nose bullets. Even if you don't reload, save your brass. Seems to be a high commodity for the Krag these days.
