[QUOTE="Starbuck, post: 2982157, member: 120719"] I ran short actions for years and years. I truly don't notice much difference in field use, and I'd much rather have more COAL to work with any day. I'll add that I do a lot of hunting in cut over areas with 15-20 yd visibility. As far as bolt throw when cycling the action, an extra .5" length might make a big difference for some things in life, but not in bolt actions . . . For speed and ease of use, I'd take a decreased bolt angle over less length. I, too, don't like long trucks in tight spaces, but don't really see the equivalence. YMMV, etc, etc. [/QUOTE]
