BTW in the article I think it is stated the 6.5x55 needs a long or longer action? Is this correct? I think it only needs a standard length action.

Nitro John,
Once again colloquial “American” english usage strikes......where was the editor?
The OAL of the Swede is 3.15” which fits in a “standard” length action, which is also called a “long” action here. (As opposed to “short” .223 length actions).
Not to be confused with magnum length actions.
