[QUOTE="std7mag, post: 2783158, member: 125590"] First off, the bullets will be the same length. Because they both use the same 30 caliber bullet. The CARTRIDGE length may be different. One issue with the Mark V action, is the length you can load a cartridge and still be able to get it out through the ejection port. COAL for both of my Mark V's is limited to 3.360". Seating a bullet to the lands (factory 7mm Weatherby barrel) is 3.630". In other words if i load to the lands, i can't eject a loaded round without pulling the bolt. And on Mark V's this requires squeezing the trigger. Something i'm not going to do!! [/QUOTE]
