That’s a cleanly done sporter. I used to walk by those old girls and not give them a second thought. I’m older now and can easily see the appeal.


well kaywoody
might know where there is a couple of them.
have an original carbine, but also a couple of cutdowns.
a kraig guy told me one of them is most likely a bannerman.
i might relay a story. friend of mine has a kraig originally from the utah national guard, and is grampa.
he killed another elk with it last fall, one shot about 75yards.
he was using a 180grain bullet loaded to about 1800fps.
did the job.
he had a box of 20 reloads, has about 4missing, all four accounted for four elk.
he said he had enough ammo probably to last him the duration.
