Title: Cartridges will not load from magazine
Post by thos96 on Dec 19^th, 2017 at 1:46am

I just got this nice sporterized Krag (s/n 44xxxx). It has a 22 in barrel, Redfield sight, recoil pad. The magazine cutoff was removed to install the sight. I tried to run some cartridges with 185 gr Sierra round nose bullets through it, but the bolt will not close. Any ideas?
