[QUOTE="Starbuck, post: 2702859, member: 120719"] Like many have stated, having to run an action as a SS due to mag restrictions is just plain foolish. If you want to run them that way for other reasons, that's a different scenario. The 300wsm will definitely benefit from a little extra length. At SAAMI length even a lot of 180's are shoe horned in there. If you're going to twist it for 212-220's or heavier copper offereings, you're going to want more length. As some have already stated, having extra freebore doesn't make it a foregone conclusion that accuracy will suffer with lighter and/or shorter loads. Or go 6.5 PRC or 6.8 W - they're RTG for heavies at SAAMI spec. Tikkas love short mag cartridges. Plenty of COAL to run them however you want. [/QUOTE]
