[QUOTE="CrowsFoot, post: 1364702, member: 17710"] I have a Kreiger heavy sporter heading my way with 1:8 twist for the 170's. This barrel was ordered by my friend before he decided to go another route with a proof in the same twist rate but seeing how he already had it coming his way we are both going to do a build based around the caliber with the 170's. I keep bouncing around on action choices because although we have had some of the short action wsm rounds built on long 700's I would like to go with a short action for this build and don't see it happening with 700. I'm really leaning towards bucking the trend and mating this thing with a short model 70 action with controlled round feed simply because I would like to try it. I could be wrong....and often am for that matter....but was thinking a short 70 would give me enough mag space with a little modification to help seat these out where I want them.Sure would like some wisdom from some of you winny guys or anyone that has expierence with this round shooting the heavys in a short action.
