[QUOTE="dimecovers3, post: 67589, member: 3216"] I have two seperate questions. First, what is the difference between a Model 7 action and a Model 700 short action? I once heard that the 700 was better. If so, why? I want to know because am interested in building 300WSM and want to know which action to use (which is stronger and more accurate)I also plan to build an ultralite 7mm/08 and the same question applies. Second, when long rang hunting, why do so many posts I read talk about using such heavy bullets for caliber. Example: I always thought in .30 Caliber 168 was best compromise of weight vs. speed to equal most foot ponds on target at long range and 140 grs. for 7mm etc... BUT I always read MUCH heavier weight bullets and I am not sure why. Could somebody please explain? Thanks in advance [/QUOTE]
