[QUOTE="Broz, post: 399693, member: 7503"] I have 800 plus rounds through my 338 Lapua. I have several friends with the 338 Edge. As stated the ballistics are very similar. The 338 Lapua I was able to buy dies off the shelf. As far as loading costs, some will say the 338 Lapua is more expensive to load for due to the cost of the Lapua Brass. But the Lapua brass is of very high quality. I have 8 reloading on the 100 I started with and now some have 9. The primer pockest are still tight, and all feel the same when priming. I just checked the inside on several for wall thickness and found it to still be ok. I have not seen edge brass get close to this. So which is higher ?? Both are great rifles, you might want to look into what action it will take for your rifle. Some are better than others when going Lapua. I used a SS Weatherby Mark V and this rifle in very accurate.
