    You can use a long or a short action, models 10 though 16 or 110 though 116. I even have one that is a Stevens action.

    RUMs are like woman in Stiletto heals, you know they are going to put you in the poor house, but that has never stopped anyone from pursuing them.

    Dean, Is your 270 a small shank?

    Yes they are all of them 6mm, 257, 6.5,270, 7mm, and 300 are all small shanks. And I show no mercy when loading them either.

    Savage factory 270 WSMs are currently built on large shank, short actions. But there are lots of small shank aftermarket barrels out there.

    Definitely want to go with a short action. Shank size will depend on your barrel. I went with the factory barrel.

    Good luck with the build.
