[QUOTE="Wolf76, post: 2331899, member: 75779"] Wouldn't go less than 9# with any of the above cartridges. Think 9.5 - 10.5 is the sweet spot for hunting. I have an edge and think its ideal for your application. They make 338 edge brass or you can neck up 300 rum brass. With supplies being questionable for a foreseeable future, this could be a big difference. All three cartridges shoot within 150 fps of each other, so at most hunting distances its inconsequential with regards to terminal performance. Since you're building a rifle, you can clearly achieve whatever weight you want. [/QUOTE]
