Tikka T3 Magazine

[nwben]

Has anyone ever purchased a billet T3 magazine from Mountain Tactical? They are from the US. Did you have any issues with customs?

No issues with getting it here, just with the mag itself. Fit is poor, doesn't feed shells

Interesting. Was the the GEN 1 or 2 mag? The gen 1 mag was garbage for sure IMOP ... poor fit as u mentioned. I have the GEN 2 and I like it. There isn't much wrong though with the factory mag if you are just in need of a second one.

I wanted another that could take a longer OAL for 75 grain bullets.

The factory mags feed flawlessly and are virtually indestructable, why bother?

Was bought in 2018, not sure which gen. They told me to shim the sides with hockey tape to keep the back of the mag from falling out the gun, allowing the bolt to slide over the case head
