Travis, years ago manufacturers including Remington offered the 308 in a "Long Action" Bolt Gun. Nowadays they only build the 308 on "Short Action" Bolts unless it's a custom builder.

Hi Travis, Yes, Remington 700 chambered in 308 is based on the short action. Long actions generally start with cartridges based on the 30-06 and larger cartridges.

Yes the .308 cartridge is a short action round If you want .308 type performance in a long action choose the 30-06 round instead
