[QUOTE="Bravo 4, post: 1262572, member: 8873"] I'm gonna disagree for the most part, I find .338 RUM brass for sale all the time. If not, use any other ultra mag brass to form it. Just run it through a .338 RUM die, it sizes the neck and pushes the shoulder back. I have experimented with all the forms of ultra mag cases. Easy-peezy, though I admit that (though not really needed) I usually anneal first. No problem as I do it every 2-3 firings anyways. Plus I turn the necks a little to be more concentric, but again I do that anyways. Not much difference than what you are doing with a Lapua Improved, just using one case to make another. The difference is that you are using one way to push the shoulders out and I'm using another to push them back. If I were going with the Lapua case it would be to improve it, otherwise I'd say they run about equal. So as not to sound like I am against the Lapua (awesome round), it does have some of the best brass going for it. As Todd stated, I have an Edge also and it's worth a look. [/QUOTE]
