[QUOTE="Wedgy, post: 1208330, member: 64108"] The problem is availability of the pre-made case of a 338 Lapua Improved. I had a 300 & 338 RUM on order for months before I finally made them. I don't even know if they make a 338 Edge case, I do all my own now. I'm sure others can add to this but a few things to remember in measuring; Theoretically shouldn't different bullets case base to ogive measurement be the same ? Yes but your comparator and guns rifling aren't the same. Even different brands of comparators can give different measurements. Occasionally I've had the case come loose and throw my measurements off as I tend to twist it as I put it in the chamber to make sure it is seated all the way. Be consistent in the pressure you use on the case and bullet. [/QUOTE]
