    CDI do an AICS one.
    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    AluTek T3 AICS bottom metal - non tactical mag release - also very nice.
    $550.00 + Freight etc (+ Mags)

    What cal are you using? The AICS is short action only. I think CDI do a long action AICS setup?

    I have two Tikka T3's with CDI bottom metal.
    308 & 300wm
    A little inlet milling is required, did it to a standard Tikka stock but didn't like what was left so purchased a Bell & Carson stock and milled that, much better. I was pretty happy with the first BC stock so bought another one and did the same modification.

    Both can handle 10 rnd AICS mags.
    Not a cheap exercise, $600 for a stock and approx $500 for bottom metal & mags. But worth it in my opinion.
