[QUOTE="dirtytough, post: 1505554, member: 6597"] Again I have a 270 wsm and a 270 win. I am going to swap the bolts. That way the long action has a mag bolt face and the short action a standard bolt face. Only thing I didn’t mention I have is a couple of the long action mags from MT so I can load short mags as long as needed in a Tikka. Again why would I buy another rifle when swapping bolts takes a few seconds? Also I would like a smaller caliber just for plinking, prairie dogs, etc that is easy and cheap to shoot. I don’t really need a long action with a standard bolt face for a plinking rifle. The standard bolt face with the short action should work just fine for that. Unless you can’t swap bolts? I haven’t tried it yet and I’m being lazy right now but I don’t see why it wouldn’t work? Regards, Branden [/QUOTE]
