[QUOTE="Timnterra, post: 2258586, member: 55944"] I am almost finished with a custom build in 338 RUM it’s built on a Remington 700 action cut for a 4” Wyatt’s box magazine. I was going to build a 338 edge or lapua but when I was researching I discovered that the edge doesn’t have much of an edge over the rum. They often achieve best accuracy at the same velocity with the same powder charges. I still wanted to go with the edge but I found a good deal on a set of Redding 338 rum dies so that made up my mind. I bought ADG 338 rum brass which is supposed to be on par with lapua though I have yet to shoot it any. The 338 lapua doesn’t do anything that the rum or edge can do. The only reason I would step up to a bigger action to run the lapua would be if I was going to build a 338 lapua improved otherwise the cost outweighs the benefits. [/QUOTE]
