[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 352976, member: 11717"] Tank, the case capicity of the 375 Ruger is not as large as the RUM or Lapua Cases. It will fall about halfway between a 338WM and a RUM. The RUM has a slightly larger diameter and is about .3" longer at the shoulder. My guess would be that the 338-375 Ruger would be about 100 fps slower than the EDGE shooting the 300 SMK. Just a guess. Still not a bad cartridge. I really like it's potential for 30 cal and 7mm bullets. I think using RL17 with those cartridges would bring them very close to RUM performance using a good bit less powder and a shorter COAL. [/QUOTE]
