Thread: Help finding old Tikka t3x or rem 700 actions that i can use as a base for a build.

Now Tikka factory magazines is limited on its long action magazine length but that is usually enough for the short action cartidges to seat out far. Maybe someone with 7 saum can confrim.

If you want AICS magazines for Tikka you have to be careful as there is two lengths. Taken from https://targetdynamics.co.nz/product...s-long-action/
So depending what chassis / bottom metal you get you will need different magazines.

3.715″ 300 WM and 338 LM for our chassis systems and other DBM
3.715″ Outside Length: 3.625″ max cartridge overall length (COAL)
3.560″ 300WM for our chassis systems for Tikka long action rifles (270 Win, 30-06, 300 WM etc)
3.560″ Outside Length: 3.470″ max cartridge overall length (COAL)

I had a chinese copy atlasworxs AICS long action bottom metal and it used the full lenght AICS magazines. For it to work properly people say i would of had to notch the bottom of the feed ramp on the tikka action.
But no mention of this on the atlasworxs website but they list the normal 3.715" magazine length. I never got around to fitting it so cant confirm.
