Flyblown - My Tikka 6.5 CM is a 24" barrel SS T3x Lite not the CTR. The magazine cartridge space is 75mm or 2.9527". Tikka did their homework on this model and have made available plenty of mag length and throat length to seat the longer 6.5 bullets out where they don't interfere with case capacity. They can do this as the Tikka T3/X action only comes in one standard, do all cartridges length.
