[QUOTE="Mike D Texas, post: 3072678, member: 71221"] You really have several options here. [LIST=1] [*]Build it on a short action. Make sure the action has a Wyatt's cut load port and use unknown munitions DBM. This will allow you to seat out to 3.150" in the magazine. [*]Build on a medium length action. A BAT Vesper action and the UM DBM will allow seating out to 3.400" [*]Build it on a Tikka action. I'm slowly warming up to the Tikka actions for builds. They use one action and vary length by a user changeable bolt stop. Also prefit barrels are readily available for them. The only downside is the aftermarket support isn't as good as the 700 pattern actions……..yet. You can get a fully custom Tikka build from a coupe of well know rifle builders for significantly less $$ than most traditional builds. [*]Build on a long action. Personally this would be my least favorite option. If you are going to run a long action, I personally see it as a waste and leaving performance on the table. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
