[QUOTE="Okanogan, post: 2951540, member: 90397"] My 6.5 SAUM is built on an Impact Precision short action and it works well with 156 Bergers. With the reamer GAP used for the build, a medium action wouldn't have benefited me with a longer COAL anyway as I can load to the throat with the short action length I have. You could always split the difference and use your existing action on a 7 PRC build. I really like my 6.5 SAUM but it wouldn't be my first choice for elk hunting. I'm not saying the SAUM wouldn't work, it just wouldn't be my pick. (I confess to recently buying a 7 PRC to fill the "gap" between my 6.5.SAUM and 300 WMs in the gun safe. ) If you're going the 6.5 SAUM route, might want to keep an eye out for ADG brass. I see Scheels and a few places have some in stock but it isn't always available. [/QUOTE]
