Hi,
anyone know if a mag for a Tikka M65 deluxe will fit on a same rilfe but in 300wm ??
It does fit for Parker Hale 1200c 7mm vs 300wm, so I wondering if its the same for other brands like the M65.
Thanks for your input
 
From what I can remember of the few M65 mags I've had, they were all metal, including the follower. The "Magnum" magazines were interchangeable from 7mm, 300 WM and 338. The Standard length (270/30-06) mag would fit the magnum, but the followers were different. This is the same case with the Parker Hale, mag length is the same but followers are different between the intermediate, standard and magnum.
 
I was just looking just now at a spare m65 mag sitting in a drawer that has no markings on it - NONE. I "believe" it is for my Tikka M65 in 7 Rem Magnum that is locked up but since I also own a 270W Tikka - I am not certain at this point. BUT I can tell you it accepts (and retains) both 270W empty brass AND 7 RM loaded rounds - I do not know if it would feed both properly though. I'm inclined to believe it is for the 7RM. fwiw I have no idea what this means right now

My M65 338 mag followers have a milled steel piece attached while a 30-06 i used to own was simply stamped.

ok ... so mine had milled steel rectangular "bar" attached to the follower ... anyway was pretty sure it was for the 7RM rifle as I dont believe the 270/30-06 mags will accept a 7RM
