[QUOTE="Rum Man, post: 2409337, member: 103316"] What's your goals with this rifle ? I removed a post above because I didn't want to busy up your thread . Now I wish I would have left it up .. I have spent countless hrs with 9 or 10 338's . The Rum's and the Edge ..dropped my last Elk at 1244 yards & put a 26 3/4" three shot group at 3027 yards with my 338 Edge. The three you talk about have been on my my mind for awhile . It was always my next step. I'm setting here Sick again and house ridden . So lots of time to think again. You have to tell us your intentions with this Rifle . I wanted so bad to have one of the big boys you posted . But with the problem with supply's right now it looks like I'm staying with my 338 Edge for long range . The 1500 to 2500 yrds. Is relatively easy with the 338 Edge . Now with the +P and a little throat work some different powder I think I could be on the heels of 3000 ft.per.sec with the 300 gr bergers . Im at 2884 ft.per.sec in the last 338 Edge with the old style reamer #'s .062 F.B.& H-1000 powder . I'm positive you could move the velocity up with a few changes ! Sorry do long in the tooth today . Just let me know and I can remove this . Rum Man [/QUOTE]
