[QUOTE="geargrinder, post: 671094, member: 6705"] Take a look at the length of the 7mm bullets you will be shooting. The one's for long range shooting are quite long. The 180g SMK, VLD, and Hybrids are quite long. If you have a short action mag box, you are limited in the OAL. Meaning you'll have to stuff more of the bullet into the case. More bullet in the case is less powder available. Less powder is less fps. That is the benefit of the long action. You aren't limited by OAL by the action, only by the throat of the chambering.
