Re: A warning for those of you who hunt deer
This is very interesting and disturbing to learn about! Do you have any updates? Did the Dr. ever remove that demon from your hand?

Re: 30/40 Krag reloading?
I had the Krag out this past weekend with my hand loads made with your formula of 40gr IMR4350 with a 220gr Hornady RN bullet. They worked great! Shot point of aim and I was ringing the 8"x18" steel plate at 300 yards!

Re: Scientific American came today
What a great article! Thank you for sharing. They were very excited about that second locking lug! I can't imagine how excited they were the next year with essentially 3!

Re: 30/40 Krag reloading?
The Lyman 50th Edition manual talks about how the MAP (max average pressure) of 40,000 CUP is what SAAMI has established for this cartridge. It gives the history of the cartridge and discusses the Krag as an elderly military rifle, but it never gives any warning to not use these loads in the Krag. I...

Re: 30/40 Krag reloading?
I will go with 40 gr. I'm going to note in my Lyman guide to not use the data for 30-40 Krag. What a bad deal! I loaded about 50 rounds with several loads of IMR 4064, 4895, and 4350. I used the Lyman guide so I probably over loaded all of them. Next purchase, bullet puller for the press. I'm not go...

Re: 30/40 Krag reloading?
<blockquote><strong>GAB!!! </strong> That 42.5 grain load will crack your bolt lug!</blockquote><br /><br />I'm glad I decided to read some of these posts regarding 30-40 reloads. I loaded some Hornady 220 rn with 43gr IMR4350 last night. Sounds like I should pull those and reload with 40gr. I'm a t...
