Kv, my HF mill has a 10x28 in table and I bought a 4" vise for it. This vise fits perfectly on my machine and a 5" or 6" would be too much of a good thing. If I get to a point where a work piece is too big for my vise I'll just clamp or fixture it right to the table. Just my 2¢ and YMMV.
This vise is a Kurt lookalike that my wife purchased on eBay from jtsmachinery for my birthday last year.

And as an FYI I took the swivel base off and put it in long term storage. Hope this is helpful.
