Hey guys, I need some help finding a new gunsmith. I have two projects, a 338 Edge, and a 375 ruger. The 338 was built buy a local smith but I am looking to have it re-barreled. That rifle has had feed issues also which I need fixed. The same gunsmith that built the 338 has had my 375...

Ok, Im freakin out now! Im sure my rifle is sighted in at 100 yards and I have confirmed my 700 yard numbers at two totally different locations so Im sure wind could not be a factor. I really have no clue what is going on, I guess I will start by checking my velocities and 100 zero and go from...

Can anyone post a drop chart for the 338 edge shooting a 300 smk at 2830 fps, 65 deg. temp, and 3500' elevation, pretty much the standard load. I was shooting at about 700 yards slightly uphill, maybe 680 with the angel taken into acount, and was dialing 9.75 moa. The balistic program that I...

I use a hand primer the majority of the time but after the first few cases that didn't work, I began to use the press after the hand primer to make sure they are seated. I have kinda ruled out the primers just for the fact that the primers in the rounds that fired are still real light, not...

I just had my .338 edge built on a stiller predator action, RC barrel, timney trigger, and hs stock. The problem I am having is I get about 5-6 round per 20-30 rounds fired that do not fire. There is a strike mark on the primer, just not enough to set it off. Even if I try to fire one 2 more...

I think Im gonna head over to the smith and have him take a look at it. Its shooting really well for just starting out. With an 8 shot string over the chrono I had a 32 fps ES, not too bad for virgin brass. Im sure it will tighten up with once fired brass. I have some pics but cant figure...

Well it seems that taking setting my neck cutter .001 tighter made a difference. I am now shooting 94 gr H-1000 and getting about 2830 with little to no pressure signs. It seems the more i shoot it, the more it breaks in and the pressure go's down. BUT, now I am having another problem. In...

Does anyone know where I can find a soft and hard sided gun case for a scoped rifle at about 52 inches. I tried to search around and can not find any info. Thanks

oops, forgot one thing. I am about .018 of the lands so that seems to be good.

Thanks for the info Joel. Just talked to the gunsmith and the chamber neck dimension is .367, and my turned loaded rounds are at .363 so that's just where you said it should be. I guess another issue could be the virgin brass, he said the headspace dimensions on the virgin cases did have some...

Hey guys, I need some help. Just got my rifle from the smith. Its a 338 edge, stiller predator action with a rock creek barrel. I am shooting the standard load for this rifle, 92 gr H-1000, 300 SMK, CCI 250, and rem brass. I had the smith turn down the reamer a small amount, not sure how...

I was thinking about heading down there, Pat was buggin me to go. I just shot my 338 edge for the first time yesterday so I still have a lot of load work to do. We'll see, I plan on going shooting again tomorrow so if I get some things figured out, I might go. What are you shooting ak?
