Tikka: AICS or CTR mags?

I feel that I've definitely seen Cabela's sell them for around 130 around a year or two ago. And if you consider the USD-CAD conversion (+some fees), 130 seems about right.

I bought some for $200 in retail stores around 3 years ago, and that was rare to find. And Cabela’s didn’t have them when I looked.

I doubt Cabela’s sell them for cheaper than other stores. Cabelas have tikka ctr magazines listed for $220 right now and some retailers are selling them for less than $200.

Hard to believe the price of ctr magazines went up $100 over a few years.

Thanks b_w!
I was worried they wouldn't work well, but after reading your post I gave them a try.
I already had another Tikka (223) in a Bravo, and was wanting to put the CTR in a chassis of some form, so I ordered two MDT mags w/no binder plates and swapped the CTR into the Bravo to try them out.
Had no feeding issues of any form with my 6.5cm rounds loaded fairly long (2.900" COAL w/140 hybrids). I loaded a dummy round to 2.930“ for giggles, and it fed perfectly as well.
CTR now sits in a MDT XRS. Factory stock and mag will be kept for hunting, but only because it weighs 27oz and I've already paid for it
