Range report

The Krag that had a hang tag of $130 came home with me and cleaned up to mint condition. The rifle is tight with perfect bluing and bore. Someone fitted a lovely walnut stock with some nice grain. I am thrilled with the original rear sight that is adjustable for windage and elevation like that found on a 1903 Springfield. It digested some reloads that were assembled 10 years ago with IMR3031 powder and 150 grain bullets.

Someone installed a 1903 front sight that is a bit high and lowers the point on impact. The rear sight needed to be set at 300 yards to print bullseye groups on an SR-1 target to 50 yards. This one is a joy to shoot. All the best...
