Anyone else interested in this Krag design?

I would be looking for 0.311″ on the base driving bands and 0.303″ on the bore riding nose.

Thanks, recently picked up an old krag, slightly sporterized, but looks like it will be a fun shooter nonetheless. I’d be interested in the 311025.

Had the Krag out at 100 yrds today, sorry about the poor pictures they were taken on a bloody mobile phone.

First two rounds I shot into the bank to warm the barrel then shot the next five for group.

First shot went in at six o clock, adjusted the aim point and the next four went in around the centre, this the best I can do off the rest with my eyes and iron sights especially on the Krag which has a fine blade foresight, the rifle and load would do better with a better shooter for sure. I have to be content with this at my time of life now.

Had a good rattle with my Uberti 1866 in 32-20 as well, another fine shooter.
