I would, if I could load long COAL and have reliable feeding.
The plastic mags are 110$ for gods sake. 200$ for a nicely finished metal 10 rounder - all day long.

They sure do - check the link I posted above.
I've emailed begging them to fold me up one out of thinner metal for my .300WSM.....we could get shipped together if so???
These are CNC machined out of aluminum, no folding or welding. They are a two piece housing held together with machine screws, which is handy for cleaning them. As per my recent conversation with David, he was not even sure as to the logistics of shipping them out of Austrailia at this time. Hopefully he comes up with a suitable solution, as the magazines are well made. Now if he would only make a five or six shot flush magazine.

Oh, that's nice!! Sounds like a solid solid build.
David told me he's shipped to Canada many times, straight to the customer (no importer).
I'll order some if anyone wants in on the order. We'd save quite a bit on shipping I reckon. I'd ship to you after they arrive here.
Anyone who's interested let me know.

I have $175 into a pair of plastic 4 rounders...the extended mags from Sako don't hold 5 7RM, no matter what anyone says, so a little more for a steel 10R would be a non issue.
There is nothing wrong with Tikka magazines. Especially if they are asking $200+ for metal ones (plus shipping and import fees).
You can buy a rifle with a magazine on EE for $700-$900.
The $200 was delivered.

Except that they're 110$, and not 10 rounds.
I'm not a plastic mag hater, if someone made a 10rd plastic, I'd grab it.
On the other hand, I would much prefer a five round magazine that fit the stock flush, as opposed to a ten round magazine that sticks out over an inch.

For hunting yes, for target the 10rd has s role.
Seems a bit like a solution to a non-existent problem on a hunting rifle.
I had a couple of Tikka Rifles, both shot exceptionally well and I never had an issue with the 3 shot magazine. I do understand the appeal for a target shooter though.
