ELR build advice

upload_2019-11-30_9-19-27.jpeg

its a hammer. This is the first 3 shots out of a clean barrel the last time I shot it. Prone with bipod and rear bag.
 
338 edge will make a great mid range elr without going to a lapua mag unique action(dollars). as a target rifle single shot is fine so look at those actions only skip mags they limit oal. build a solid copper rig..talk to the bullet makers first it aint the same game, or go with the proven 300 berger . I am working on n570 and 300 looks good past 2400.

Rum Man, I hope I can do this request like this , there maybe hoops to go thru here. I would be interested if in the future you decided to part with one of your 338 edge elk killer. I have been reading a lot, seems you have been around the block and then some do I leave a email address or a phone number, this is in the future, I have taxes to pay ,before anything .thanks buck in n.c.

Hello hvacman04 !
I'm not a licensed gun builder or carry a FFL ..yet... but sure injoy putting the components together with my Smith's help ..
It's been fun and disappointing at times working with the 338's but I still injoy them ! They seem to do a great job on Montana Elk and Bear . The long range shooting is perfect practice too !

Here is my Email just in case !!

You have a good Evening Buck in N.C !
