With the way projectile development has gone, it'd be foolish to introduce a long-action that didn't house at least a 3.7" COAL. Wilson could skip the 24 and 28 altogether and just go straight to the 32 that already has the longer box. Given the option, almost everyone would gladly pay 4Oz for all the COAL in the belly they ever wanted or needed.
I think you're right. But, it is a 32oz action, right? Not 40oz. There was a Model 40 but, it was bigger than the 32.
I should've put a space between 4 and Oz. I meant folks would pay 4 Oz (32 vs. 28) to have the COAL. There was a "short" magnum version too, but I don't recall if it was a 28 or 32.
The 28 as a "Short Mag" action w/3.34" mag box would probably suffice, but, then @ 3.34", is it really a "short" action?
I guess what I was really getting at is that I wouldn't offer less than a 3.7" box for anything in the 62MM-68MM case length families ('06, 264/7Rem/338, 300Win, etc).
