338 Edge build

[Mram10us]

I love that Brux light palma!! Most of the 338 RUM's I've built have been that barrel!

I'm still in shock you like anything sorry, couldn't help myself

Congratulations. That's one nice looking firearm. If it shoots half as good as it looks it will be a shooter. Envious of people with your skill. What kind of glass are you going to top it with?

Thanks. No envy, anyone can do it. I like hst 6-24s. I'll use my golden eagle for load testing

Well all this talk about the 338 Edge has me fired up ! I think I'm taking this one out today for Spring Bear here in Montana!

I have been trying to use the barrels I got from you on both of the 300 ultras for a Bear. The wife will still carry the Christensen one but I'm fired up about a 338 Edge ! Ha ha

What single shot adapter did you use I'm asking because I have a simmer set up but I do not like the Single shot adapter I have.

I make them with 1/4" aluminum bar stock. Easy to do.

Don't have one yet. My big guns as of now are a 30" 300wby and a 7rum. An edge is in the works though.

Thank you!!! That's what I was going to do as well I just thought if I could buy one that I liked it would be faster to go shoot, but I guess I'll fire up the old mill and make one to my Liking

Cobalt cerakote is one of my personal favorites. It's a dark charcoal grey with metallic in it. What is the exact color you used on yours?

I mixed graphite black with a touch of satin aluminum. I've added a couple ml of satin aluminum to other colors when I wanted a little more reflection.
Thanks guys.

Took it out today and tried some r26 with 270elds. My lowest charge was 88gr and it was showing high pressure so I did a one shot, clean for the 3 shots and will start from scratch. Never tried r26 so I want to toy with it before running back to the big 3 (N570,retumbo,h1000)
