Have you slugged the bore? You MAY need to use .310 or 311 diameter bullets. Some Krag bores are slightly larger than the 308 we all take for granted. Try the IMR4350 powder. That's what I use and get consistent 2" groups at 100 yds.

Knute 1,

Title says it all. My phone is smarter than me. Can some one tell this dope how to send pics from his phone to the KCA forums? Photobucket is holding my pics hostage--hence the need to use my phone. I get as far as getting a jpg file in the "choose file" box but I'm lost from there.<br />T...

Thanks All,
A copy of Joe's book is on my xmas wish list.

Remember this too--if you load too light of a powder charge, instead of a controlled burn, you could wind up with a detonation instead and that could be bad for the rifle and the shooter. Consult the loading manuals and follow the loads to a "T".
