[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 2589034, member: 10291"] I own, and have used both for hunting and competition. While I will do have a strong preference for a 90 degree(CRF) with my large caliber DGR’s(for extraction/feeding reliability), for all other applications my design preferences are based more on the particular maker/brand, with other design attributes(ergonomic and function) having more influence then whether the bolt throw is 60 or 90 degrees. Two of my long time favorites are a short action Surgeon 591(90 degree) used for competition, and my medium action Cooper 520(60 degree) used for LRH. Both have proven to be reliable, fast, smooth, and exceptionally accurate. [/QUOTE]
