200 grain loads for Krag and No.1 MKIII

[Mark Daiute]

My 314299 came in and I've cast a couple hundred rounds from wheel weights. I'm looking for loads for this boolit in my 1918 BSA as well as my Krag. Ultimately I'd like loads that will reach out to 300 yards and more (especially with the Krag).

Right now the powders available to me/that I have the most of are: Unique, 4759, 4064 and some 3031.

Thanks in advance,

Mark

I use that boolit in my Krag cutdown. Sized at .312. !7.5 gr of 4759 clone gives 1550 fps and good accuracy. 21 gr gives right at 1800 with the same powder.

I have sized at .311 but get better accuracy with the .312 sizing.
