wrenchman, Just how much shorter is a short action, for say the 300 WSM , than an action for the 30-06? I know they are a little shorter than some of the "long actions' for the magnums based on the H&H cartridge. I think a lot of the short action craze is a lot of hype put out by gun writers "who would never tell us a whopper". I have had both and have never noticed any difference when I was actually shooting them. There may be about an ounce difference in weight, but that is all. Not much difference.
