I owned one of the Globe .308 Krags for a while but could not quite get up the nerve to shoot it, despite its Austrian proofmarks. Handsomely stocked but the metal finishing was not quite as nice. And I sold it with a warning !! .308 commercial ammo is loaded hotter than 7x57 or for that matter .30'06, and notwithstanding that Norwegian Krags are both better designed (with double albeit asymmetric locking lugs) and stronger metal than American, I think the .308 overdoes it. On reflection, I should have barreled it back to 6.5x55, but at the time that never occurred to me.
