I love my two ought six rifles but even though the action/bolt is barely an inch longer they do feel way longer and more cumbersome than my 7-08. Where I hunt I frequently move between woods and fields. So far the ability to bring the 7-08 into the aim faster and with less hassle outshines the 06 harder hittingness. I ould lighten and shorten the 06 but it'll be precious close to a 308 then
