My 338 edge arrived a couple days ago, made my modified case for my hornady lock N load COAL tool.
Found out that the COAL that will make the 300gr Berger OTM tactical's touch the lands is 4.107"
Problem is the longest COAL that I can get with my internal box mag and feed/function is 3.800" for some reason they used the Brownells long box instead of the wyatt.
Yup that means a .307 jump into the lands.
The bullet is a fair ways into the case but still seems to be enough room for powder
I loaded 3 @ 87, 88, 89, 90, 91, 92.5 and 93gr. with the COAL of 3.800. Will do first round of shooting tomorrow hopefully.
Anyone figure this is a problem or not?
