Have action need cartridge

[std7mag]

Yeah...
Remington experimented with short magnums with short barrels back in something like the late 1950's - 1960's.
Shortened the 7mm Rem Mag case to develop the 6.5mm Rem Mag and the 350 Rem Mag.
Put in their Model 600 & 660 rifles.
Muzzle blast was atrocious from reports of the time.

But despite all the complaints about the muzzle blast, good luck finding one of those rifles now.
They've become quite the collector item.

I am glad you finally shared that info.

Yea probably should've started with that.

My apologies.

LL! It's all good. I did not know if it was not for our PM, either.

I have a long barreled edge being built and a long barreled 300 rum already. Thinking between 30 Nosler or 300 prc. Although @KH_Outdoors 338-300 prc looks pretty nice.

Those mid sized 338 magnums are sleepers! 338-300 PRC, 33 SM, 338 Nosler are pretty intriguing

I built me a 22" 30 Nosler and my hunting buddy a 22" 300prc. Both great cartridges…I'd not hesitate to build another. Good luck.

Recently took ownership on my first couple suppressors. Now I need (want) shorter barreled rifles (I knew this road would be traveled). I am already putting together a 20" 7mm. However, I have an extra action so I am looking at 30 or 338 caliber.
I have an Impact Precision 777 long action mag bolt face. I would prefer to use a 20" barrel and the Hawkins hunter dbm set up but bdl would be fine too. I don't want to cut on the action or single feed.
Rifle would be used for hunting and some steel. 1000 yards and in. Preferably huntable to 700 yards.
I was thinking WSM, 30 Nosler, PRC. The 3.77 limit in mag length sucks for 338.
Any input would be appreciated.
Thanks
Dustin
