[QUOTE="Alibiiv, post: 2329127, member: 69192"] Just curious about the reason that you are strapping yourself with a short action? If it is for weight purposes is there really that much difference between the short and the long action where other areas on the rifle can be lightened? There's a pretty good margin for reducing weight in the stock for one example. If I "had" to go with a short-action cartridge with some horsepower I would be taking a very strong look at the .270 WSM with a 1-8 twist barrel so as to shoot the longer, heavier pills. This cartridge is all there that you are looking/asking for, including brass availability. [/QUOTE]
