I don't see the advantage of a short action, I'm thinking it too is just another gimmick to achieve sales. You can do anything on a standard 270/30-06 case that you can do with a short mag except shoot economicaly.

It my be a sales gimmick but alot of people are buying them. Including me. I bought the 270wsm and there is an avantage over the standard 270win. One thing it it at 270Weathery velosities. In a shorter package.And ammo is more common in my area. "Qoute" DON'T knock it unless you try it. As my Dad always says.
