[QUOTE="goose, post: 404757, member: 14402"] I like the norma for the same reasons. Others suggested the Edge or 338-375 ruger, there are several over on the savageshooters that have built 338 edge, some even repeaters. One who built a repeater said it was not worth all the work. I've also seen a 338-378 savage. When it comes down to it, I like the Norma cartridge enough to start with a different platform. Since I have a savage now, that would be the most reasonably priced. Otherwise I might look for a remington or weatherby donor rifle. I'm looking for more of a hunting weight repeater. A weatherby mark V in 30-378 or 338-378 would be a pretty easy barrel swap, or you could possibly shorten and rechamber the 338-378 to Norma. Then again a RUM chambered Remington would be a natural choice. Both of the above could be shot until enough funds or barrel wear is achieved to swap our for the norma. [/QUOTE]
