[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 673088, member: 2736"] The long action only allows you to seat bullets way out. The short action works fine for the 7 WSM and if you want to keep it simple, chamber the 7 wsm with a SAMMI reamer and load to magazine length and factory ammo will shoot fine and reloads can be made to shoot well @ magazine length. I have built quite a few on Mod 7 actions for the same reason (To keep the rifle short) and they all shoot under 1/2MOA. I have built several 325 WSMs and a couple of 338 RCMs on the SA and have been very pleased with there performance also. If you want to load heavy bullets (170+) then the long action should be considered. But for 120s to 160s the short action works well. Just my opinion J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
