[QUOTE="trueblue, post: 275270, member: 10654"] Wild Bill, Wondered if you new the working pressure of the 338 EDGE.I don't know what it is, but the max working pressure of the 300 RUM is 65,000, so lets say the 338 EDGE is similar, for arguments sake. So my question is why is it acceptable to build a rifle on a SS Rem action based on a 404 Jeffreys case with a base diameter of I think .55 @ max working pressure of 65,000, and not OK to build a rifle on a SS Rem action on a 416 Rigby case ( 338 Lapua, 338 Norma) with a base dia. of .584 and max working pressure of 63,500 ? I am not a gunsmith, and maybe someone could chime in on this. Would like to know the answer to this question. [/QUOTE]
