Gentlemen:
I am looking to use a . 30-40 Krag for whitetail and would appreciate your advice. The rifle is built on a single shot falling block action, so strength is not an issue. I have an RCBS 180 grain flat point
GC mold for the boolits.
I am particularly interested in your opinions on optimum bullet hardness and velocity. I would like a 200 yard load, although realistically I will never shoot so far. For alloy I have 25-1 and 16-1 lead/ tin on hand and life would be simpler if either alloy would be suitable in regards to both velocity and terminal ballistics.
Thank you for your consideration.
Glenn
