    Tikka mag feeding problem

    For my 7mm wsm, brought a long action tikka magazine, now having issues getting rounds to feed.... any bright ideas?

    Some times the rim of the case is high enough to catch but most of the time it won't. Haven't done the bolt stop mod yet but releasing it doesn't help (have to release bolt to get chambered round to eject anyway)Name:  20191101_195414.jpg

    Feels like the mag spring is too far forward for the wsm brass

    Rifle came with a medium tikka mag same as my 308, hand loaded rounds are far too long to fit
