I am thinking about getting a Remmington700. Now I'm confused between the VS and the Sendero. What's the difference between a short and a long action?

The cartridges they are chambered for.

The short action takes the short cartridges. i.e., .223, .243, 6mm, 7mm-08, .308.

The long action is chambered for .270, .280, 30-06, 7mm Rem. Mag, .300 Win Mag.

The VS is the varmit model and the Sendero is the PSS Tactical model. The barrel on the VS and the Tactical are the same, the stock is different. The VS is better for the money.

The Sendero is not the PSS model. The Sendero looks exactly like the VS but with a long action.

The Police Sniper is just a standard production rifle not custom.FWIW
