    You have chosen the 338 edge no doubt due to its exceptional barrel life and accuracy, mag battered ammo wont help.
    Just out of curiosity are you still going to have this problem if you are utilising a decent brake or suppressor? Haven't noticed this issue before, but then again I haven't exactly been looking for it...
