405 WCF on a Krag? Will it rifle?
Can I build a 405 WCF on a Krag rifle action? Is that a possible thing?

You have probably seen the discussion above about converting the SMLE to .405 WCF.

Dan Pederson did one for a customer of mine a couple of years ago. He rebored the barrel and did the action modifications to make it feed.
