    Do you shoot in your lounge Nibblet?
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Could be dangerous had I selected the wrong file.... Especially in the clusterfuckmess of a folder they were in.

    Of course @Rushy, that's where I get all my practice to consistently beat you

    What's your poison? Mrs coming back through duty free in next few days so getting her to grab a thank you bottle.

    From memory, Im running the 300 bergers @ approx 102.00 mm, Edge is a great cal, better performance than a 338LM and the cases are nearly 1/3 the price
    Shoot it, root it & then BBQ it !!!

    That's what I thought. Rum brass is easy to get hold of and cheaper.

    None yet, but what I have come across is the rum brass is a lot cheaper to buy.

    Correct... But you can turn that around and say the edge is a wildcat and you have to buy barrel etc where you can buy a LM off the shelf.
    So over the lifetime of the gun/barrel it's same same really

    I would rather have an Edge over a Lapua any day.

    You can build an Edge for the same price as a decent Lapua & it will be lighter, cheaper & faster

    Build me a Edge wrapped in HS precision for $2k or under and I'll agree

    I've got a foot 1/2 in both camps... And am happy with them both... Ford vs Holden, but end of the day, I'll take 100 Lapua brass over 100 Rem given the choice

    If it was all about the biggest baddest fastest, we'd all have 10lb 375 DCMs .........soon........
