Hornady ammo is showing up in the brick & mortar retailers. Midwayusa notifications piped up yesterday with Starline 6ARC brass. Things are looking up in my opinion.

What stock is that?

No. The 103s & the 105s so far.

I used a Rainer Arms 22” for mine- I wished I’d of went with the 20” BA Hanson. Reasons- 1. Rainer 22” is an .875” at the gas block instead of a .750”. 2. Gas tube length on the 20” is Rifle Length- on the 22” it is Rifle +2. 3. Weight- the 22” is About ~ 3/4 lb. heavier than a 20” .750”@ the...

I’m shooting 150ELDXs out of a 22” 7mm-08 @ 2800-2815. I just don’t see stepping to a 162ELDX & even considering a modified 7mm-08 case,( SAW, or the other one above), I don’t see the modifications being worth the hassle. I’d like for it to be but I just don’t see it being worth it personally.

At 22”, is a 150 class the better choice?

Advertising is asking for trouble in the current climate.

That is nice: I was unaware of that length being typical as I’ve ready repeatedly that ~4.00” was required. I just don’t see Hornady supporting the Edge: certainly not getting it SAAMI approved. I do see them supporting a 338 PRC. I think it will lend to more .338 bullet & barrel options...

I’ve never handled an Edge, but I understand a 4” Wyatt’s box is needed. Doesn’t this make it more of a Custom than something that would stay at or under 3.800”?

I see it as being to the 338 class what the 7PRC is to the 7mm class. A better .338 that functions well in a standard Magnum action. It doesn’t do Lapua or Norma Magnum, but it also doesn’t require a special action or extra large bolt face. A modern 338 Win Mag with higher BC bullets. With...

This is hypothetical since I have not seen a reamer print that Hornady used for their 338 however, This is in the realm of what others have done with the Campfire & 375/338 previously.

Exactly. I believe it would be akin to a modern .340 Weatherby. Hornady’s reloading manual calls for the Weatherby pushing the 250s to around 2900fps. I surmise the 265-270s would be around 2800-2825. ~85 grains of powder. Seems like a logical offering to me.

According to their podcasts, The Hornady bunch did the 375 Ruger based 338 along with the 300 years before they rolled out the 300 variant. I hear you on the .585 bolt face but I don’t want it. I like the 375 Ruger case & want a 338 variant. I understand the increases when going to the .585”...

I see the 300 PRC is 3.700”. Holding that it would be an improved 338 Win Mag with a lot better ballistics. I don’t want to deal with the .585” bolt face but I do have a AG new stock, a Wyatt’s box, & a Remington 700 patterned action ready for this very chambering. I’ve got new ADG brass on...

Is the CDG the one to go with for a true change barrel rifle? Is there anything that one really gives up to go with the CDG over say a 1. Terminus Zeus Long Action with the Quick change feature. 2. Big Horn TL-3 3. Impact 757 4. Defiance ANTI action with set screw. Looking at doing 2 long...

If the Hornady 338 PRC was loaded to say 3.715” or so with the 250 Berger or 270 grain eldx, I’d say it would be more than just an updated .338 Win Mag. Looking at the cost vs. performance, it would be roughly 85-90% of a 338 Lapua at 50-60% of the cost. I can’t help but believe it would sell.

With a happy birthday card from some fellow named Holder? F&F on the back of the card?

Hornady came out with a mobile lock box a while back-...

Any Updates on this? What the long-term opinion?

I don’t see the Krazy Ivan brass, dies, or barrels available… I would prefer it personally over the other choices as there would no bolt change needed for me. Otherwise I’ll probably go Spectre as it will be 100% Subs. Any advice? I want to run it on an AR-15.
