[QUOTE="Susquatch, post: 1640502, member: 31264"] Ok, I see that. Case plus bullet = long. But no so long as to rule out a bolt. Especially not a single shot bolt. I don't think loaded case length has any bearing on bolt vs break action. Bolt actions are not the limiting factor. The magazine is. Its easy to stuff a long bullet into a bolt chamber and then eject the short spent case. But don't try and stuff that monster into a magazine! I think that the main reason you see so many break-action rifles is because of the cost factor. That said, the VAST majority of benchrest target rifles are bolt action single shots based on custom actions. [/QUOTE]
