I have a blue printed 700 LA that was originally a 300 WinMag. I am considering rebarreling to 338 Edge. Are there any issues with the feed rails that will need to be address to use it as a repeater. I intend on using a Wyatt extended box. Thanks Eric
 
Re: 338 edge repeater

Most will need to be slightly opened around .006" per side or so. Measure a 300RUM case and the belt on your 300WM then open the feed rails by the amount of difference. You just want the case to be able to feed up and out of the magazine box.
