Always had a thing for the US style Krag sporter, a beautiful rifle Joel.
A friend of mine in the States thinks he may have a Springfield Krag action "somewhere", so hopefully if he can find it, I would like to build a sporter but in 303 British instead of the 30-40.

From what I know (little) about the Krag action, I believe it, like the Mannlicher-Schönauer, is machined for the specific round. Whether the differences between Brit and Krag would suffice to cause trouble, I'm not sure. Would definitely test in every way possible before commencing a build.

Having said that, your idea would be fantastic if it works.

I picture a Tasman/Aussie-Anglo-American rendition, a sort of "Lee-Speed" layout w/ a Krag action. Would be a neat gun.
