[QUOTE="Sling, post: 913411, member: 75373"] I believe the 338 version will be the best of the bunch. Custom action makers usually use 1.125" threads for the 338 Lapua size cartridges & 1.187" for Cheytac cartridges, I see no problem opening up the 338 Lapua chamber to your 338 Wolverine in a 1.125" tenon. The Cheytac action boltface won`t work of course but would be stronger since tenon size is even bigger. With the popularity of the 375 Cheytac with heavy per caliber projectiles, it will probably be a better choice since powder capacity is a bit more. It looks like the 500 Jeffery Jamison brass has a thicker head than the Bertram 500 Jeffery or the 500 AHR. I talked to Marc Jamison and he said all of his rifle brass is made to handle 70,000psi.
