[QUOTE="winmag, post: 593279, member: 22166"] Go to the gunsmithing section, & read the first post by J.E. Customs entitled "Bolt face diameters". It's a sticky (permanent thread). That'll give you an idea of likely donor actions to build off of without costing you tons of $ having a smith opening up bolt faces etc. should you choose to go that route. Another thing you may consider, is starting with a 300 RUM, & when the barrel is toast, bumping it up to an Edge with a new pipe. For what your wanting to do, the 300 RUM is more than capable with 200+ gr bullets. There's so many to choose from now that it would be a great option for you for a current L/R rig slash future donor action for Edge without costing you a lot of extras down the road. Look at the L/R/H classifides as a lot of members are always selling quality firearms to fund this or that, & new projects. Also, as a turn key rig, Len Backus (the big guy here) sells customs, as do many fine sponsors here. Shawn Carlock is a member here as well, & is right accross the creek in Idaho if you want an Edge, he's the man to talk to. Good luck There are quite a few production rifles chambered in the RUM cartridges, not just Remy's. Rumor has it that Remington is ceasing production of the 338Rum, but so far its only a rumor, & not confirmed yet. [/QUOTE]
