    How does the magazine length compare.
    I know about the "all tikkas have a long action" thing but unless you buy one with, do you still have to muck with the block in the ones designated for short action calibres to seat out.

    Also the long action T3's seem to have quite a short long action mag especially for the magnums. Just wondering about the long action Howa's.
    Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?
