[QUOTE="Long Time Long Ranger, post: 660783, member: 505"] The beauty of the mk 5 action is that you can build about whatever you want. Mid range and <400 pounds again take your pick. Since you are stuck with the magnum bolt face I would do nothing bigger than the '06 length magnums. Any of the short mags from 257 up to 30 cal would be good. The 264 winchester or 257 wby would be good since you probably have some 7mm wby brass already and can just run it through a 257 wby die and your good. For mid range to 600 or so yards the 257 wby and 264 winchester can be lazers with not much trajectory to worry about. Just saw factory cartridge also. 300 wsm would be good. [/QUOTE]
