Chad S., Welcome to the KCA forum.� Your Model 1898 Krag, #243746, was likely built and accepted for Service early in 1900.� There is a nice agreement between probable time your rifle was assembled and your stock's 1900 acceptance 'cartouche'. Krags were not built in numerical order. It appears the receivers were numbered and went into parts bins and randomly pulled out for assembly.
