You are a bad man, CZ, putting all those fine looking rifles up for us to look at. And just before Christmas! :grin: Another good looking rifle. You certainly do produce some good looking firearms.

Wow that things is wonderful!! Show us a picture of the cartridge? How does it compare with the 338 Lapua or 338 Ultra-mag?

Wow! Very modern appearance...

6mmRem, the .338 Edge is based off the .300 Rem Ultra Mag, necked up. This gives it a little more case capacity than the .338 Rem Ultra Mag.

Some folks disagree with me, but all three; the .338 RUM, the .338 Lapua, and the .338 Edge, have very similar ballistics and capabilities. They all excel long range work.

I wonder WHY folks would disagree with you :?: they ARE almost identical in Performance ! the Edge and the Std RUM are better to build on a std Rem M700 action as there is more meat left in the chamber end and less bolt thrust with them then a Lapua JMO and maybe yours to Guy -

The only thing the lapua has going for it is good components and loaded ammo. Otherwise it really should have a purpose build action.

The edge fits and feeds MUCH better in a rem 700 action or clone. There are also some out there being called the Diablo but still just a necked up 300 rum. When combined with a wyatt extended mag box you can get a near 4" Col and really free up some room in the edge case for 300gr VLD bullets.

That rifle should be one heck of a long range hammer!

My buddy built one on a sendero with extended mag box and 30" douglas straight taper bull barrel with 1-10 twist. Thing looks like a truck axle more than a barrel! He put a Hubble telescope sized peice of glass on it, 8-32 Nightforce. He shoots it a lot at 1000+ yards. He takes it to a large frozen lake in the winter where he can shoot as far as he wants. Seems like a 10 minute snow machine ridge just to check targets! It's an impressive cartridge that will really reach out there.
