[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1196860, member: 2736"] The Mod 7 action is over a half inch shorter overall than the "Short" action 700 and has a shorter bolt. But the mag length Is the same so it will handle any of the standard short action rounds. It can be used for the WSMs and SAUMs as well. Recoil was manageable but when fired it ended up pointing up at about 11 o'clock and second follow up shots on other game was difficult and slow so I added a ported brake (No top holes) and the problem went away, plus the recoil was reduced from 42 ft/lbs to 18 ft/lbs of recoil energy. I also added a laminate stock that up the weight to over 6.5 Pounds. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
