[QUOTE="Kevin Cram, post: 211523, member: 2215"] Joe, While the .338 Edge gets alot of recognition here it really isn't that much of an improvement over the .338 RUM. Your only going to gain approx 50 - 100 fps. Now you'll have the added cost of custom dies and added brass prep, but since you already purchased the reamer and have some .300 RUM brass on hand you might as well chamber it for the Edge. The ER Shaw barrels are more of a low economy grade barrel, that's why they're only about $100. Save your money and put a good Kreiger, Brought, Hart or other top name barrel on, you'll be glad you did in the end. Buy the best components you can afford and you'll never be sorry. Good luck with your project. [/QUOTE]
