[QUOTE="86bowhunter, post: 1038469, member: 84122"] I posted a while back about buying a 338 lapua built on a surgeon action. After I got it I couldn't get it it shoot and to date I have over 350 test loads put thru it and still haven't seen the result I should be seeing. I've tried everything there is to do and I've come to the conclusion that if this last finally test at distance doesn't go well then it's just one of those times were the gun won't shoot (which could be the reason I picked it up so cheap). l've seen it before but never in high end equipment. But! Nonetheless if the next trip does show result I'm going to call it a loss and start over and rebarrel it and build another 338. I'm strongly considering the Norma because of it's overall length The edge is still a possibility. If I go back to the lapua it will simply be because I already have the brass and dies. Those that have more experience with 338 what are your thoughts on the lapua, Norma and edge. Any thoughts and input is welcome. Thanks guys [/QUOTE]
