[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 1118908, member: 25383"] a Savage short action is a little bit longer than a Remington, so it should be just fine for any bullet length and yet keeping the bullet in the neck instead of the shoulder area. With a .378" case diameter, a small shank is all that's needed. The 24" barrel is actually on the long side for the case size. A 22" barrel is about right. I've had them all from 15" to 26", and this round really likes a short stiff barrel. (same with a .222 I might add) gary [/QUOTE]
