Great job! I will take one once you've put them into production. :)

Thanks for all of the info! I saw where you had posted some of this elsewhere. I have enough .303 and 30-40 brass to experiment with but understand the resizing process is a bit lengthy. I would...

Count me in! A line of Krag shooters to show the Springfield and Mauser boys "how it's done".

I don't have a Garand, but would be willing to lend the 03-A3 if someone needed it for a match. It's a very nice 3-43 Remington.

Sounds like a practical solution. My Krag suffers from no such malady, but my Type 38 Arisaka seems to do something similar. That might lend some credence to your idea about rifles used in the...

Thanks for the info. My thinking was to start with 4895 since I have a decent supply of it. BTW, I'm still hoping to shoot my '98 Krag at Camp Perry this year and I look forward to meeting you and...

Hope you can make it Culpeper! I got back from the sandbox in August and am planning my first trip to Camp Perry this year. Hoping to shoot my 1898 Krag and 1903A3.

Well, after many years, I've decided to finally shoot my Type 38. The rifle is in excellent shape and has a very good bore. I would welcome any tips and advice on handloads for it. I'm looking at...

Just back in the States from the Middle-East and ready to begin working-up some accuracy loads with my Krag. First-up is slugging the bore a making a cerrosafe casting of the chamber. Then I will...

That looks like great fun, and congratulations to you all!

I WILL be there next year!

I look forward to being there next year. I plan to shoot a '98 Krag and a 1903A3.

Good luck to all of you guys heading to Camp Perry this weekend. Be sure to give us a full report!

Very good! I was lucky enough to go aboard the Saratoga just before she left Mayport for her final cruise. Like I said, I couldn't tell from the photo, so I didn't realize that was a super carrier....

Thanks madsen! I did a little sniffin' around the CMP site and found it. When looking at CMP sales, it got me to thinking of maybe just re-barreling my '98 with one of the Criterion barrels instead...

Mark, I've had my Krag for quite a long time but have only put maybe 100 rounds through it. I want to make a chamber casting and slug the bore to see where I am in that regard. I load and shoot lots...

Thank you madsenshooter. I'm going to be looking for some 4064 to go along with the powders I have now. My '98 doesn't have the nicest bore, so I have considered the idea of using cast bullets in it....

Thanks Paul. My reloading for my "carbine" has been with IMR 4350 and mostly 150 FMJ bullets (because that's what I use for my 1903A3). Like you, I figure that it will do best with what it was...

Unfortunately, I lack the proper rifle (have a "cut down" '98, and am currently out of the country), but I would really like to shoot in the Vintage matches at Camp Perry next year. Some of you have...

That's the one rifle I would seriously pay a whole lot of money for!

Well I guess it's time to start looking for a companion to the carbine!

While I've never done it, I have wanted to shoot my 03A3 in competition there. My Krag has a cut down barrel. Is a "carbine " allowed per the rules? I would really like to meet and shoot with you...

Thanks for all the info guys. I should be back stateside in a few weeks and really want to spend some time at the reloading bench. Because I was focusing on my 1911s and pistol shooting, I haven't...

It's a cut down rifle with a 1902 rear sight and an '03 Springfield front sight. Common, I know, but the work was very well done. I was thinking that bullets in the 180-200g weights might give me...

Nice shooting! I need to really work on dialing-in my Krag carbine. I've only tried a couple of loads using IMR 4350 and some 150gr M2 ball that I load for the 1903A3. I'm sure a heavier bullet will...
