WAIT... a Brux barrel, and not the beloved Bartlein??? What were you thinking??? J/K, very nice build, and a Brux is going on my current build... which i should have any day now...
Defensive edge has some custom made bertram 338 edge brass, they are very pricey though ($3 a piece). He wanted to test out there life and got +20 firings on once piece without annealing and with full power loads. Also, the necks are thinner so you need to drop down in bushing size. Shawn said...

I personally wouldnt use a rem 700 on a case with a 338 Lapua bolt face, it is marginal. Build a 300 rum and get some bertram 338 edge brass from Shawn Carlock at Defensive Edge (neck it down) and you will have just as good performance, just as good brass, and work very well on the 700 action.
Niles Coyote, how far it penetrates isnt really of interest to me, i am more concerned if they will expand.
MTyotehunter, i agree! I was going to go shooting yesterday but it rained hard all day and is supposed to do the same today :rolleyes:
