Off the bench, my Krag has shot 5/8" groups at 100 yards, 1 3/4" groups at 300 yards, using PSteinmayer's suggested 220 grain bullet load. I just loaded some 220's using H4350, some 180's, and 168 HPBT's using IMR 4350. I hope for good weather to shoot these loads soon, I will report. I tried to post pictures of the groups, but got an error message, saying pictures were too big.
