[QUOTE="yorke-1, post: 1712510, member: 11960"] The performance between the RUM and Edge will be within about 100 fps with the advantage going to the Edge. There's really only an 8-10gr difference in case capacity depending on the brass used. When both the RUM and Edge cases are loaded to the same OAL the difference is a little bit less than that since a bullet will be seated deeper into the RUM case at any OAL and taking up some of that extra case capacity. The RUM has more options for dies, but the Edge can be loaded with standard RUM dies and a 375 RUM die to sized down the case web if necessary. Properly head stamped Edge brass is more expensive and a little more difficult to source some times but that's only an issue if you need the proper head stamp. I've owned both the Edge and the standard RUM and I'd just go with the standard RUM throated for the bullet you like to shoot in most circumstances just to keep things simple. [/QUOTE]
