odies dad Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 I recently received the model 98 30-40 Krag that my grandfather carried up San Juan hill when he was with the Rough Riders. Teddy himself gave this rifle to my grandfather as thanks for saving his life. I wanted to make something I can carry a bit easier so I shortened the barrel to 20" and put it in a Ramline synthetic stock. I drilled and tapped the receiver for a set of see through bases I had, but now the shells won't eject from under the scope. How can I modify the ejector to kick the shells out the side more?

rustvyper Posted April 4, 2012 Report Share Posted April 4, 2012 Haha - that's awesome. The only reason that I didn't get upset was because you tipped your hand when you said grandfather. I figure even YOU can't be that old! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
