[QUOTE="Oliveralan, post: 462653, member: 20245"] I believe the 378 wby has at least as large a rim diameter as the lapua, if not bigger. building a case that size on a remington action, not a good idea. The lapua is already on the edge, and you have to make sure not to load hot rod rounds in it. You will need a bigger action, such as a stiller 338 or 408 action. They will not be much more expensive than a trued up remington action all things considered. Also, 378 brass is hugely expensive and pretty soft, i don't think you'd be giving up much by going to a 300 rum, 338 edge, or 338 lapua. If your set on 30 cal, go with a 30-338 lapua, or 30-338 lapua imp. [/QUOTE]
