[QUOTE="hemiford, post: 861510, member: 72104"] Hello, This is an older thread, but I thought it might be appropriate to post my question here. I have taken an interest in putting together a Rem 700 in 338 RUM. Now I read about the 338 Edge. Let's see if I've read and understood correctly: Even with the slightly longer case and increased case volume of the Edge, it is not an advantage over the RUM case as neither case can be loaded any fuller than around ~~100gr (whichever powder). Both cases have more than adequate room, neither case is really volume limited. Loading each case with the same bullet and shooting it out the same config barrel, each cartridge faces the same pressure limitation. How far off am I ? Thanks Folks ! [/QUOTE]
