I have a T3x. 308, I hand load so am limited to thee OAL of the tikka mag as don't want to single feed. If I was to buy long action mag would that give me a longer OAL that would work? I was at gunworks today and they said I my also need to change the bolt release catch to a long action one to alow the bolt to draw back further but she wasn't 100% sure. Bit of info before I buy the mag and the catch would be nice please.
Thanks Sam
Should work, i changed the bolt stop on my 7mm wsm to allow longer rounds. Brought a different brand magazine to solve that probpem after having diameter issues with wsm rounds in the long action mag.
Bolt stop mod 8s easy just don't pose the spring, was a bit of a pain the first few times to remove bolt but have learnt the knack to it now.
Real easy, get the bolt stop for a long action or file yours if it's an early solid non skeletised one
Long action mag and you are good to go
My M24 is a factory long action chambered in 7.62x51.
works flawlessly.
