[QUOTE="INTJ1, post: 2069892, member: 34312"] This rifle is a walking rifle designed to be portable and won't be used past 600 yds. The 340 Wby and 28 Nosler case are about optimum for that. The 340, the 338 RUM, and 338 Edge for that are a bit too long for an unmodified M-70 magazine. I didn't want to extend the magazine on this rifle, I just wanted to chamber a new barrel. I did have to get the RUM magazine and follower to get the rounds to feed. So I now have what is about an ideal .338 cartridge for a 3.6" magazine box. When I build my next Edge, I will either build it as a single shot or else get Kevin Wyatt's 3.85" long M-70 box. It will be about a 12 lb rig using a light Palma contour barrel. [/QUOTE]
