[QUOTE="WildBillG, post: 2608699, member: 106952"] My brother had a 338 Edge built. So I loaded him a few rounds to try it out. The load was 92.0 grains of IMR 7828 in neck expanded ADG 300 RUM brass and a 215 Fed primer. The first 2 rounds were fine no pressure signs at al. The 3rd shot flattened the primer so bad you can hardly tell it from the brass and the primer was pierced. The case came out really easy. but the extractor was pushed out. I forgot to mention I was using a225 hornady sst. The rifle is a Sako AV with a 30 inch Jury barrel. The 4th shot was just like the 3rd and we called it quits.. This load was out of the Nosler manual for the 338 Rum and is 1 grain under max. I figured it was a safe load as the Edge is a bigger case. Any body have any ideas of whatwent wrong. [/QUOTE]
