      Mark. Sorry no. Did you ever contact Wolfs and get the lube formula you were looking for over on cast BOOLITS site?

              Are you the owner of the BA marked 1896 Krag rifle?

                  Not to hi-jack, but I have two BA-marked Krags. (1) My CRE carbine 70210, and (2) My 1892/96 rifle 6692, if that is of any help.

                          That leaves me out - mine is certainly OK, but not "really nice". IIRC, on 6692 the [BA-WJ] is surcharged right over the remains of a [JSA/date]. On the carbine, there does not appear to have ever been anything other than the [BA-WJ]. It probably went to China with the short stock, which was replaced with a long upon return.
