Thanks for all the info here. Been going back and forth between getting one in 7-08 vs .270 as an all around deer and sometimes elk rifle. Currently have both cals in Montuckys so there will definitely be some duplication and probably the sale of one of them. I'm concerned the barrel is too light in the short action and bulky in the long. The montuckys have similar barrel profiles with different length and shank length between short and long action. The description above says the short action barrel profile is sub #0 and the long is more like a #2. I'm hoping someone has seen or handled the long action and could give me some info on what they thought comparing the short and long actions.

Also wondering if SAS has some input on them and when they are expected to be at the shop.

Thanks,
Craig
