So... Cases aren't cheap nor widely available for either, but 338 Lap brass seems to be readily available off of the shelf (not to mention factory ammo, should I ever be foolish enough to pay for it), rather than being wildcat brass.

On the other hand, I've had a Lap, haven't had an Edge, and it's a little cheaper to get a RUM ready action than a Lap ready one. Looks like dies are out there on the shelf... Kind of a non-wildcatter friendly wildcat...

Is it 6 of one, half a dozen of the other? Any reason I might be missing to go Lapua vs. Edge, or Edge vs. Lapua?
