Cool. I like Krags, but they are about the most confusing collectible out there. You have originals, later converted and sporterized ones of various provenance. With Wild Bunch shooting at SASS, Krags can be shot at long range but have to use the orignal 220 grain lead round nose loadings. (no jacketed as I understand it)

Rainy day at the range, had a registered match, but only 6 shooters (more tomorrow if it drys out), I shot my Benelli Cordoba because of the weather.

Wow..... gotta get my butt over there this coming spring to SHOOT ..... Wild Bunch huh ? Sounds cool ....1911, 1897 and a Krag in 30 army ? .... will join SASS and start practicing this winter. Yeah gramps carbine has been tapped with a very old pencil thin M3 weaver. Know anyone that restores scopes of that vintage ? It works well but it rode a lot of fence around Gunnison, Ouray and Montrose.
