338 builds (lapua/edge/or the like) lets see them.

Great art work gentlemen, truly fantastic shooters as well.
I've been tossing the idea of finding a 338 RUM. I have a 300 RUM and I really want to have a 338 RUM right beside it. Tough times keeps me from chasing that bug. I do love looking at all these big cal's. Keep em' coming!
 
338 EDGE 32" 12 twist Barrel 160gr Barnes TTSX 106gr of RL17 = 4200 fps and the 180s with the same load 4000 fps
It's a Remage, it has a Night Force 42 power BR on it now "old pic"

I have to thank who ever brought this thread back to the top since it made me realise, that I had lent out my 42 power nightforce out to a buddy "Can I borrow your BR scope if I had some decent glass I could have a chance at decent finishing" well guess what he still sucked.LOL I like those Swift preimer long range scopes and have had good luck with them.
Here is another pic

I'm almost done with my 338 Rum build that I started two years ago about the time this thread started 😂. Hopefully it will be all Cerakoted and ready for pictures and load development by the end of the week. It's a Remington 700 with the works, 4" Wyatt box mag, opened ejection port, fluted bolt, m16 extractor dual ejectors, 27" fluted lilja 1-10" sendero barrel with fat bastard brake, sitting in a carbon edge fill McMillan game hunter topped with a NXS 5.5-22x50 in badger six screw steel rings. It's a fairly light weight set up for what it is I will have to weigh it after the bedding and Cerakote to get the final number but with the parts piled up on the scale it was just under 10lbs with the scope if I remember correctly.
