[QUOTE="mike33, post: 393316, member: 14195"] Was able to go shooting today and very impressed with the edge. I have only been a member on this site for little over a year and previous never heard of the 338 Edge. I couldnt believe at first reading threads and post how a caliber like this shooting a 300 bullet would perform this well. Afer a few months went by figured there had to be something to it and jumped on the bandwagon. Fired 5- 3 shot groups at 100 1 at .264 , 3 in the 3's, and largest was a .460. Pretty bad you get ****ed at shooting a 1/2" group. I havent shot anything heavier than a 257 whby in 25 years and of course dont like recoil. Even with a brake i had a bag placed between the gun and my shoulder until my last group. It made a difference giving me a smaller group measuring ,264 and recoil was less than my 257 whby. This gun is a pleasure and a lot of fun to shoot. Now i know its time to go some yardage and really make her perform. Travis fired a 4" group at 1040 yards before shipping i know there is no doubt it can be done. I was hoping to get a little more vel. average is around 2750 using 93 grains of H-1000 with 300 SMK.
