    For all the dicking about and the ridiculous amount that Tikka/Sako/Beretta are wanting for mags (plus the companies doing these 'aftermarket' bolt stops), just buy yourself a KRG Bravo or MDT XRS and get yourself up and running with AICS magazines.

    The lips on the regular Tikka plastic mags will spread eventually with use to the point where you can get mis-feeds due to the rounds titling. The CTR mags are better but stupid expensive.

    Look for a second hand chassis, load to 2.8" with any 308 or Creedmoor based cartridge and you'll be laughing.
