[QUOTE="Wild_Bill, post: 151035, member: 4785"] Hi Python go with the Edge it will do anything the Lapua will and with the Quality brass available it is as good. Also the rounds are better suited for feeding and you already have the action. Get a longer mag box fitted and load them to 3.900" long and you will be good to go. Shawn will have some detachable mags for them at an OAL of 3.900" in 4 and 8 round capacity so that is the best way to go in my opinion. The LApua case is realy over stated If remington was in first with the full length 338 Edge it would have made it a lot simpler as it will fit in more actions than the Lapua case. The factory LApua ammo is down loaded to a lower pressure where the FActory 338 Ultra is loaded higher so they basicaly equil themselves with factory ammo. The LApua ccan however be loaded to almost the exact performance as the 338 Edge can be. Look at using the 300gr Sierra in wich ever you chose. I have designed and improved 338 Edge basicly as i wanted to stay away from mthe Lapua case. Cheers Bill Australia CHeers Bill Australia [/QUOTE]
