[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1558007, member: 2736"] If you want a power house in a short action, you might look at the short magnums. I built a 338 RCM on a model 7 Its even shorter that a 700. Mine can push a 200 grain 338 bullet to 2970 ft/sec. the 225 can reach 2700 ft/sec, The 250 can go to 2500 but is a little brutal in a 5.5 pound rifle. The 325 WSM has a little more case capacity and if sized up to 338 it should reach or exceed 3000 ft/sec with the 200 grain bullet. The 350 Remington magnum was designed for the short Remington actions and can be loaded to near these velocities. All of these cartridges use a magnum bolt face and will fit in a short action Remington 700,673 of a model 7 action. Just another thought J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
