[QUOTE="signature542, post: 516348, member: 14798"] Welcome MMM rock plinking.. thats good practice but I'm not sure you need an Edge for that. Dont get me wrong its a brilliant cartridge but a well built 7mm will do that with some of the new high BC bullets. I'm just throwing options out there as I'm not sure how much experience you have. Going up to the 338 Ultras is another level and you will need deeper pockets. But hey if it rocks your boat do it.. A good brake will calm it and its a must. Do you have a magnum bolt face Rem 700 action to use as a donor? Or are you going a full custom action.. It never ends and barrel quality and spec is something also critical to fine acuracy. Of course add another 2G for some decent optics to start you out. I must ring Aron to see how he is going with my old Edge I hear he has had joy with it already. Now he knows what I mean about a quality build. Prove is way out there! We hunt sambar and other deer with them but generally we set up in wide pen places and just shoot to test our skill. Some range work..which will lead you sometime later to F class.. It never ends! I;m still waiting on a new action for my next LR build... 7mm Dakota no expense spared But geez I miss the Edge...something about a 300gn pill! [/QUOTE]
