I think that if I were looking for a big boomer, my first choice would be a .338 EDGE. It's a 300 RUM straight necked up to .338cal, versus the .338 RUM which Rem set the shoulder back to keep dummies from trying to cram a 300 RUM into a 338 RUM. Anyway, the 338 EDGE (aka 338-300 RUM), has a few more grains capacity, very close to the 338 Lapua Mag, without the super wide case and larger than standard mag bolt face. It'd be sporting a 28" tube with a Holland/Defensive Edge style brake. It'd be my "privacy" rifle... because one shot would cause everybody else at the range to leave, giving me my privacy!
