[QUOTE="highridge1, post: 825125, member: 10327"] I have had a couple 338 edges both shot great but both were too heavy and long for overall use. I now have a 338-378 accumark, put a farrell 20 moa base on it and a zeiss HD5 5-25x50 I am very pleased with the setup. It's running 300 gr smk's at 2920 fps out of the factory 26 inch barrel,plus brake.I am Running my rounds mag length at 3.8 . Very accurate .Haven't weighed it but the other accumark 338-378 I had I could carry on long hikes with no problem. It's pretty much everything I need. 300 gr bullets are the way to go they will easily surpass the 250's at long range.I could not get 2920 fps out of either one of my edges with a 30 inch barrel and running them as single shots. The 338-378 does this with only a 26 inch barrel and I could push the 300's even faster. [/QUOTE]
