[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 161822, member: 10"] Bill, The formed Lapua cases will hold around 8 grains more then the Edge case filled to the case neck. If your talking about usible powder volume however, it would be more like 12 to 13 grains more for one reason. If your limited by a specific OAL such as in this case 3.850" and if you seat the bullets to this same overall length, the shorter fatter case design of the AX will offer more internal powder capacity simply because there is more bullet hanging out of the case then there is with the RUM or Edge. Basically, its about right between the 338 Edge and 338 Kahn in case capacity. Kirby Allen(50) [/QUOTE]
