Title: 30/40 Krag reloading?
Post by S.B. on Jun 27^th, 2015 at 9:17pm

I've read elsewhere that the Hornaday 220 RN is a favorite bullet for Krags(for ease of feeding, I suppose) but, what powder is everyone using for best accuracy? I'm completely new to reloading 30/40 but, have reloaded most of my adult life, now 67YO. What modern powder and bullet would match military loads of the early 20th century as far as velocity and accuracy?
