[QUOTE="Lionel Boyd Johnson, post: 2329141, member: 110111"] Using Remington 700 actions as an example: Otteson's book lists the total action weight as[B] 35.2 oz and 38.1 oz[/B] for the short and long actions. This includes the magazine/floorplate group (ADL) and the recoil bracket. The difference in the magazine floorplate groups is.7 oz. Hope this helps. So, the answer to the question is 2.2 oz. So, for less than three ounce difference, I'd choose the long action to broaden my cartridge options. [/QUOTE]
