I have a 300wm T3 s/s lite, B&C stock, muzzle break & after market bottom metal with AI mags. Got a Vortex PST on top fixed to a rail, It does what I want, drops stuff from 50 yds to 600 yds but gets bloody hot after half a doz shots.
Overall length of cartridge plays a big part if you stick with the standard Tikka Mags. Changing can get you a couple hundred fps.
