	So, here is one of my newest, and coolest sporter Krags. I think it is pretty amazing!! A benchrest Krag made with a Gatling gun barrel. Pretty heavy. I love it and thought you guys might like to take a look. Best, Tom

	Some details about the Gatling gun barrel, please? Bore & groove, twist? Length & weight? Made by Colt? What did you do to the breech to make it fit?

	I have it locked in my gun room. I will try to get it out this weekend to take some measurements and weigh the thing. I didn't do the work so I don't know all the specifics about how it was put together.

	Tom... perhaps I missed it before, but what is she chambered for? Is it still .30 USA (30-40)?

	Yes, it is in 30-40. Using a Gatling gun barrel. The barrel is 30" long. The whole gun is 49.5 inches. It weighs a mere 14.5 pounds. Probably won't be my "brush gun" next deer season.
