They got nearly everything right.  Still quote the wrong ballistics for the 7x57 in the SAW: in 1898 the Spanish service round was ballisticly near identical to the Krag.  A common mistake they should be better than.  Oh well.  No Mills belt, but she does a decent job on the load.  She needs to learn to cycle these rifles from the shoulder, but at least she does the same for all of them.  

They really do a good job on the chaos of the rifle's development, and the dance of sights is a fine thing to see!

The last question asked was best characterization of the Krag I've heard in relation to 1st Generation smokeless rifles.  Sorry Pony!

I like my Krag, I just don't shoot it as much because., well, everyone else in GASF seems to shoot them! So I do something different, shoot a Lebel!
