Personally I wouldn't purchase a 7mm RM at any price. Especially to cut 4 inches of barrel off so it doesn't perfom to the level it should without the extra barrel length. Got buy a 30-06 and you won't be sorry.
.........Aside from your opinion or dislike of the 7mm RM, the estimated 80 to 120 fps velocity loss from a 4" barrel cut down, won`t make a darns worth of difference in killing power performance on any game one could possibly hunt with a 7mm RM. Long ranges or short ranges, a 22" barreled 7mm RM rifle, will do anything that a 26" barreled 7mm RM can do.
That would also apply to just about any other cartridge if the barrel length is reduced.
