With a scope like that on a Krag, it should be a tack driver!

Good job. Enjoy blasting away.

Nice looking rifle you put together. I have a`98 sporter that must have been worked on many years ago that has the same scope mount and an old Lyman 4x. You can tell that it must have been used for hunting a lot with the dings and scratches on the stock but I will never refinish it. I have refinished many stocks an what I do on them is to go over the stock with 0000 steel wool to take the gloss off of it and give it more of a vintage look.
