The .338 RUM has almost the same capacity as the Lapua. The Norma has slightly less capacity as it is a shortened, 2.5", but improved case without the pronounced body taper of the Lapua. The 33Nosler does not claim to be the fastest but that it will fit a standard 3.34" magazine. Note that you could not rechamber a .338 Win to .33 Nosler (as the Nosler case is slightly shorter) without setting the barrel back a few threads. .338 Norma specs ( COL is given for 300gr match bullet seated flush with base of neck. Hunting bullets could be seated for a COL of 3.34".)
