Considering the 6.5x55 was designed (with it's wierd shape) to have the same or very similar capacity as the 7x57, if necked to 8mm, the ctg. should be almost identical to a normal 8x57. I suspect most lighter, US manual loadings would work in the Krag - at least somewhere between starting loads and max.

Interesting 'fix'.
