I have a Borschardt in 30/40 Krag. It is a rifle that my father built back in the early 70's made from an action that was being made back then. Not sure who the maker of the action was but he told me that it was made with modern steel. He can't remember what the twist of the barrel is or who made the barrel. My guess is it is a Douglas barrel as he used them on a few other rifles he built.
I am looking for a good cast bullet load starting point that I could use in this rifle. I have a good supply of 160 cast gas checked bullets to start with.
Ideas on starting loads or who may have made these actions back then?
