Hey Guys,
Just wondering if anyone has had luck modifying a WSM magazine for a Tikka T3? The rifle has the capability of handling wsm rounds with longer bullets and longer COAL but the magazine length of 2.91" is the limiting factor. You can replace the bolt stop to allow your bolt to pick up the longer rounds but I havent found any aftermarket magazines that would accomodate WSM rounds with COAL longer than 2.91"... Even with 180gr accubonds it would be nice to seat them out a little further and not have them so deep in the case.
