[QUOTE="yorke-1, post: 1654778, member: 11960"] They designed them so that they could fit into a large selection of actions. It was actually a really smart decision. With a 3.400" OAL spec I could rebarrel any gun that was originally sold in any of the belted mags to one of the Nosler offerings without any other modifications. If I wanted to throw a 30 Nosler barrel on an old tang safety Ruger I could and it will still work with factory ammo. Keeping factory ammo loaded so that it will work in the shortest possible action just gives them the opportunity to sell more factory ammo to guys who want to throw a new barrel on their old action but don't load their own ammo. The performance of factory loaded ammo for any of the Noser offerings is still a meaningful step up in performance compared to factory loaded ammo in other chamberings which will fit in similar sized actions. That doesn't mean anything to me since I don't shoot factory ammo, but it is relevant to the folks who do use it. [/QUOTE]
