    That makes sense. Mine is a short action as well. With 140gn projectiles they JUST fit in the mag so I haven't bothered to go any bigger, but that doesnot bother me as there is nothing in NZ that I can't knock over with a 140gn projectile. (All my Sambar shooting has been done with a 25-06 after all!!!!)
