[QUOTE="Rich Coyle, post: 1276125, member: 70559"] When I was young I carried a 7-.300 Weatherby with a heavy 28" barrel. The powder capacity of that and the STW is the same. For a rifle used in a stand, I would go with a 30" barrel ending in a large side port brake. Seeing the impact adds fun for a barbarian like me. If you don't want to go with a different action, I would use the .300 case shape because of the longer neck. The throat will last longer. If you don't mind a wildcat and the case Steve is recommending has a longer neck than the STW I would go with that one. [/QUOTE]
