[QUOTE="trebark, post: 432516, member: 19172"] 338Edge is a 300RUM necked up to 338. Sends the 300grain SMK at 2800+fps. That's a TON of energy waaaaaaaaaay down range. You're right, a 338 is rather expensive because you need a custom barrel and custom dies. If you want to stay in the 'factory' cartridges, look at the 300RUM. Sends 210grain bullets at 3000+fps. I think I said it before, that my next build (in the works right now) is a 300RUM. By building a BIG magnum, your arsenal would be 'complete'... 308...for targets, varmints as far as you can see. Can also be used on deer. 270wsm....great for deer sized game at long range and elk to 500-600 yards (maybe farther??). BIG magnum.....everything including elk at long range. [/QUOTE]
