Mine (mfg in 1989) is a long action and I don't think they have made a short action.
Nice thing about the long action is it allows you to maximize performance by seating the bullets out.

No, I'm not a Ruger bigot - just an unabashed fan of their revolvers, M77's and #1's.
A good .30-06 is a 99% solution.
