Title: Re: Original US Army 30-40 Load Post by 7th1st on May 27th, 2019 at 5:07am
Thanks for all the information! I took it out and shot it this weekend with Remington Core-Lokt. It grouped pretty nicely from 100. I am very glad I picked up the Krag.
Regarding the cracked lugs...what fps will 40 grains of powder and a 220 grain bullet do? I am assuming that load is different than the load the Army used for the short period where they had the problems. I am going to look into the two bullets (Hornady and Sierra) and buy some dies. That rifle was a lot of fun to shoot, but until I start reloading it will be expensive... |
