    T3- Wasted in a short action?

    Looking at a T3 as I want a stainless, lightweight rifle for out to 500yrds. Therefore, calibre is hardly important as all will more or less do the job. eg. 7mm08, 308, 30-06 etc

    Wanted to stay away from the big magnums as I'm not a real fan of getting the shit booted out of me!

    Is it a waste getting a T3 in a short action? When it is a long action anyway... I.e. is there any point in getting a 7mm08 when a 6.5x55 is in the identical action and possibly offers a bit more should I want to really stretch the legs. Similarly, if one was to rebarrel there is no messing about with the bolt stop and buying a new mag!
