[QUOTE="Sir Wendigo, post: 1070391, member: 83962"] Thank you for the notes. To my knowledge and after looking at the measurements of both RUMS, the only differences on the two are the neck diameter, and the big difference is the length to the shoulder, which is shorter on the 338 RUM, and is actually the reason I picked it over the 338 EDGE. But how I resize is basically lightly and I mean freaking lightly lubing the shoulder and inside of the neck of the 300 rum brass. I have a FL sizing die in 338 RUM from RCBS, nothing special. I run it through to open the neck up, and bump the shoulder back only a slight bit. Then I take the brass again and run it through to finish bumping to shoulder back to the correct length and there you have 338 Rum brass, after trimming of course. A simple two step process that will make you tear your hair out because of the wrinkles you will get around the shoulder, and when a case head rips off, you want to jump out the window. But that only happens when I get lazy with the lube, either putting to much or little on. [/QUOTE]
