    Area 419 Muzzle Brake Mod.

    I understand your thought process here guys but, these Sidewinders just aren't available! Another factor that's pushing me toward the Hellfire Match is that the Area 419 guys themselves have released a video in which they themselves are stating that this version ( HellfireMatch ) their latest...

    Area 419 Muzzle Brake Mod.

    Hi, I am considering purchasing an Area 419 Hellfire Match muzzle brake for my 338 Edge build. I have located a brake but it's listed as a .30 Cal rather than .338. I have heard of brakes being bored out (increased in dia ) by Smiths so, I was wondering if anyone has done so with one of these? I...

    Whidden Seating Stem Question

    OK! 2 varying opinions on this then. Both Berger's too! In the event, a Custom stem is required, is this only available from Whidden direct or can they be obtained elsewhere? Thanks. Shona

    Whidden Seating Stem Question

    Hi Guys, I managed to find a set of Whidden FL Bushing dies for my 338 Edge on the shelf recently. Can anybody tell me what seating stems these are likely to come with as standard, please! I'm intending to load both the 285Grn Hornady & 300 Grn Berger Elite Hunters & was wondering if I will...

    Broken Bolt Lug

    Hi, Guys, The rifle has approx 180 rounds down the pipe Max so, I don't think that can be considered as excessive use by any means! My Gunsmith thinks it's definitely a manufacturing flaw/ defective casting etc! Either way, it's not something that should cause a Major debate with a warranty...

    Broken Bolt Lug

    Hi, I have a Weatherby MK V. 338 LM that's sheared a lug off it's 9-lug bolt. No idea how it occurred & never found the broken piece. The rifle is with a Weatherby agent in Ontario awaiting a decision as to whether the warranty will be accepted or not. Prior to the damage occurring, I notice the...

    Thanks to all who took the time to reply to this query. grinnergetter, Softtail103, Totoro & Paladin 300. Yesterday, I managed to speak with Terminus Actions manufacturer Joel Russo & he gave me some sound advice in relation to this build. There is a larger internal box available than .385" & he...

    LOADING THE 338 EDGE.

    Hi, Can any of you Edge shooters tell me what mag setup you are using on the Remington 700 platform? I'm interested in whether you are all using Detachable mags or Internal box mags! If anyone is using an internal box mag with a drop plate setup, can you tell me how many rounds it holds & if it...

    NECK BUSHING & SEATING STEM ADVICE REQUIRED!

    Thanks for the reply Steel head but I'm not familiar with the term skim cut? What is that exactly? I see you are also using ADG brass but is that with the 300 Grn Berger or Smk's? Thanks Shona

    NECK BUSHING & SEATING STEM ADVICE REQUIRED!

    Hi, Rocketmandb, I will ask Whidden's opinion on the stem selection as you suggest & I appreciate the info on the neck bushing but as the .300 is being necked up from .300 to .338 I would have naturally expected it to have a larger bushing surely! Thanks Shona

    NECK BUSHING & SEATING STEM ADVICE REQUIRED!

    I have a batch of ADG 338 Edge brass that's sitting with my gunsmith, along with the 300 Grn Bergers I bought ahead of time. From what you're saying, I suppose he could knock up some dummy rounds & take a neck measurement. As the gun is not yet built, I have no way of providing fired cases as...

    Southern Precision Rifles . Any thoughts ?

    SmartDonkey, In the hope of offering you, even more, reassurance, let me explain how it went for me. I contacted the owner Greg Young direct at his original premises in Naples, FL. prior to him upping sticks & moving shop to Tennessee. I requested 2 Custom builds as described. I ordered 1 stock...

    NECK BUSHING & SEATING STEM ADVICE REQUIRED!

    Hi, nksmfamjp, Thanks for the reply, but I should explain my situation exactly! My Edge will be built by my Gunsmith in B.C. Canada & I am trying to locate the components remotely. At this time, I don't have a die set, I'm trying to organize the purchase direct from Whidden & ( correct me if I'm...
