[QUOTE="nralifer, post: 2682075, member: 94556"] In a short action (approximately 3”) you would need an OAL of 2.88”. The 175 gr boat tail would be in the powder space. You might be better off using the 150 BD2 at that OAL StaBall could be used in both instances but with the 175 you probably will need reduce the power charge. I was going to test the 150 gr from a short action Savage at 2.88” with a 11.5 twist barrel to see what speed I get snd whether in cold weather the bullet is stable. [/QUOTE]
