If by "action music" you mean music for a film/tv/trailer action sequence, please don't heavily limit. It might sound great by itself, but when you add sfx & dialog it'll just turn to mush.
Most of the big music libraries have started doing loudness-war mastering on their new releases. I think it's a terrible trend.
