[QUOTE="VinceMule, post: 2755078, member: 122164"] Nix the short action, planned failure with those long VLD Bullets. I have been down the road of a 25/284 and 6/284 on two different Rem 700 short actions, NEVER NEVER again! For the easy button, a std 25/06 with R#26 should impress all, and go AI for impressing. Lapua 30/06 brass is floating around for the Win. AI brass made from Winchester 270 brass is very good. If you want more, then go 257 Weatherby, custom reamer with freebore to match the 133. I have a reamer on file with PTG for just necking down Winchester brand of 264 WM & 7 Rem mag brass to the 257 Weatherby with a .060 shorter neck. Exotic stuff in this day and age, with shortages of everything including long waits and impossible to get in many component choices, demands some level-headed thinking/planning. [/QUOTE]
