Title: Re: 1896 Krag Rifle [advice needed - PICS Added] Post by AzMedic on Sep 6th, 2016 at 5:55pm
Is it worth it to 'slug' the barrel to find out true diameter?
Did a controlled experiment using the Krag carbine I posted in an earlier thread (I have no idea what its ME is either). All tested bullet weights were 175-180grn Winchester Commercial. .30-40 Krag round sat about 1/8" high from crown to neck brass edge .30-30 Win round sat directly on the crown with the neck brass edge. .303 Brit round sat approx. 1/4" above from crown to neck brass edge (.311 dia) |
