[QUOTE="Alex Wheeler, post: 1461936, member: 101859"] All a short action does is cut 3/4" off the length of the rifle. It does make them a little handier feeling and a little lighter. If the ounces and 3/4" are not a big deal the long action does offer advantages. I have built the 7saum and 6.5 saum on shorts and have had no issue with accuracy or velocity with the bullets seated deeper in the case, but it does require a little more attention during the reloading process regarding the doughnut in the case and pressure ring on the bullet. Both of which can almost be ignored if the rifle is throated for the long bullets and the pressure ring kept in the resized portion of the neck. [/QUOTE]
