[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1027470, member: 2736"] You will lose enough velocity that it wont be much better that a 7mm Short mag (7 WSM or 7 SAUM) They can be built on a Mod 7 or a short action and a 23 to 24" barrel will not be any longer than the long action and a 22" barrel. also with the shorter cartridge ( 7 WSM or SAUM) it is 3/4" shorter than the 7 STW with the same length barrel so effectively you gain 3/4" inch of usable barrel bore. So combined with the shorter action the overall length of the rifle can be very compact while using affectively a longer barrel (23 to 24"). Just a though J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
