[QUOTE="QuietTexan, post: 2771202, member: 116181"] Wonder what a Lapua bolt face in a short action would be like. Something like a 25 WSSM but growed up to scale like the WSMs. Played around in QD real fast and it shows that shortening down a 338 Lapua to WSM body length you could get a COL of 2.800 with 0.750" of bullet out of the neck, capacity of 86gn H20 with 30* shoulders. Basically a 257 Weatherby, just shorter and fatter. Probalby faster too, depending on throat design. Would be a wicked launchpad for the Berger 135gn LRHT. [/QUOTE]
