[QUOTE="Shawn Carlock, post: 84383, member: 4"] The 338 RUM is a good round. It cannot be considered to be the level of the Lapua or the EDGE. It is in the same game just not at the top of it considering the parameters of the project. If you lose ammo in transit your LRH game is down the tubes no matter what the caliber unless you are shooting an available factory ammo. I am not aware of any commercial loadings in 338 RUM that I would consider up the the task of LRH. If you have to load anyway might as well take advantage of the additional velocity of the Lapua or EDGE. I think the 338 RUM is good, I just think you would not be making your custom LR stick all it could be. [/QUOTE]
