[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 881434, member: 2736"] The 338 Edge is based on a 300 RUM and the brass is larger. The 7mm RUM, the 300 RUM and the 375 RUM are all the same. The 338 Rum is shorter and the brass will not work in the Edge. A 26"# 6 Lilja contour is a good compromise for the 338 RUM and works very well without adding to much weight. I use 225 and 250 grain bullets in my 338 RUM and they are good to 1100 + yards on elk. If you want to increase the powder volume and re use your brass, you could go to a 338 RUM AI. The 338 RUM has a slight powder advantage over the 338 Lapua unless it is an AI version. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
