[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 404750, member: 13632"] It shouldn't be a problem to open up the bolt face a little, I would need to open my WSM bolt face up .037 to load the Norma or Lapua. I really like the idea of the 338 Norma, from what I can find it should have .185 shorter OAL than a 338 Edge. It may make it easier to make a repeater with than the Edge or allow a longer bullet to be seated better. The only reservations I have about that size of case is safety, some say yes some say nay on going over RUM size cases in the standard Savage or Rem 700 action. If only we could get the action Savage is using for the 110BA. Keep us posted on your build, I'm looking at options for building a 338 chambering also. [/QUOTE]
