Re: Range Results: We're making progress!

Vertical stringing is usually a result of trigger pull. Since the Ballistic Coefficient of the Sierra and Nosler will be different because of their shape (Ogive), they will not fly the same. The construction (and high cost) of the Nosler is due to the partition which only comes into play at the targ...

Re: Check this out

A beautiful Krag, for sure. Fine workmanship. It just boggles my mind why anyone would mount a rear sight to the cocking piece, possibly the worst place it could be mounted. There is no way it will hold point of aim mounted there.

Re: New Krag owner, need some advice

I'll second what Tom said. The 6.5x55 cartridge is inherently very accurate and flat shooting. When hand loaded for your rifle, and put through a good bore, you can put them all in the same hole at 100 yds.

Re: Show us your Krag Bubba!

Dick:<br /><br />While laminated stocks are a matter of personal preference, they serve a very practical purpose, as I'm sure you know. The laminated stock allows the rifle to hold zero and not warp or deflect whether you are shooting in sunny Florida or the wilds of Alaska. I like the walnut lamina...

Re: Show us your Krag Bubba!

madsenshooter :<br /><br />I never thought of myself as a Bubba. Never have I chopped up an original gun. What I did was to take Krags that could not be practically brought back to original and rebuilt them for folks to enjoy for generations to come. The quality of the two guns I showed you certainl...

<r>Here's another refurbished Bubba gun that will help preserve the Krag legacy for future generations. This was done the same as the previous except it has a Douglas National Match Air Gaged barrel and a Richards walnut laminated stock finished n hand rubbed Linseed oil. Nothing beats the beautiful...
