Nice pics & rifle! Posting pics and IT interactions in general seem to push the limits of my vocabulary on a regular basis. Confused Seems when I try to get almost any combination of smartphone, tablet, laptop and printer working together one of them is in a cranky mood and refuses to co-operate.

Thanks for persevering, I like pics!

Thanks, Mike! I am still “old school”, using an old Sony Mavica with the floppy disc. I bought it back in the 90’s, but it’s still going.

I think I got the “hang” of posting pics for now. Brain farts do occur, however.

Well, I shot the Krag today, and I must say that it is a “tack driver”. Only shot it at about 65 yards, but it is dead-on. Sweet trigger, too. No creep, whatsoever.

Great range report! What did you use for ammo? 65 yards is a good distance for old leverguns, IMHO.

I used Winchester 180 gr. Power Points. I actually had more bullets than I thought(a good thing). A friend of mine free-handed it and hit about 2″ to the right of my rested shot.  We only shot it those 2 times, and I still have almost a full box.
