Fs 338 Edge

[bwaites]

The EDGE is Shawn Carlocks name for a .300 RUM necked up to .338, which is what Alf says this is:

"What ever you want to call it, it's still a 300 Ultra necked up to 338, with no other changes."

The EDGE also includes whatever gunsmithing things Shawn does to the rifle. I don't know how those things compare to what has been done to this particular rifle.

This looks like a great price for what is essentially the same chambering as the EDGE, but I'm not knowledgable enough to tell you more than that.

Bill,
I think you explained it well.

Upstate guy,
I called my gun an Edge, because most people over here are familar with that chambering, not because it's one of Shawn's creations.
I thought I explained the history and background on this gun and chambering pretty well.

I said the barrel is stamped 300/338 Ultra Mag. You can see that in the picture. I said I thought it was backwards, as in maybe 338/300 Ultra Mag instead. Also, my Redding die box says 30/338 Ultra Mag.

Brass WAS hard to find eight years ago, not now.
You need to use 300 Rem. Ultra Mag Brass only, necked to 338, with NO OTHER CHANGES.

Maybe I'll just keep the damn thing.

Al.

I know you said no trades, but what the heck. Any chance you would be interested in a 300 rum, remington CDL, with holland brake, and 1.5lb trigger job for partial trade?

if not at least this keeps it on top. thanks, jon

still for sale?

[alf]

Yes, it's still for sale.
And no, I'm still not trading. Sorry Jon.
Anybody REALLY interested, PM your phone #.
I'm tired of finger tag.

Buyer backed out.

Back on the block.

Thanks for clearing the confusion on the Edge case etc. I thought it was 338 RUM case but in reading a previous post somewhere I found its the 300 RUM case necked up. I guess the 300 case is longer.
