338 Reloading Data
Since our development of the 338 Edge we have found it to be one of the more forgiving and easy to use large long range calibers available. Below are some of our pet loads, loading info and notes on reloading for your 338 Edge.
Note: Like all reloading data it is just a guide and not an absolute, please use smart loading practices and start 10% low then work up from there. Just because we were able to use charge “X” with our lot of powder doesn’t mean you can.
