    Yep that’s the website . Not cheap but very well made . They fit perfectly and allow a longer coal . I’ve got both the 6 and 10 sizes and they are what they claim and work perfect. The standard tikka five rounds mag work best with 4 rounds . T hi e WR MAGS work great with the specified 10 or 6 rounds. Spot on 

     

    Do these mags wobble about like the standard T3X mags?

  2. I bought this shotgun from new 2 years ago and i have only been out with it twice. Consequently this gun is in as new condition, unmarked and showing no signs of use.

    As this gun is a cabinet queen and taking up space, it needs to go to make room for a new project i have in mind.

    Just 3 boxes of cartridges have been through this gun from new.

    Browning plastic case is included with a full set of chokes, alternate trigger and the kit for auto safety (not fitted).

     

    Photographs were taken in bright sunlight making the wood look a lot paler than it actually is.

    £2000

    Advertised elsewhere.

  4. I picked up my new Tikka T3X CTR in 223 yesterday.

    I was shocked at how wobbly ,the magazine fits to the action. I can't pull it out but it wobbles from side to side a lot and even front to rear.

    I have seen seen a couple of 'fixes' on YouTube but reluctant to try it on e new rifle. It appears to be a common issue apparently.

    The tikka Rifle you have mentioned on this thread. Used to be mine, it’s on a 595 action bedded into a Macmillan stock. And the current owner has had it Coated. It’s not tatty it’s a used rifle, and I can’t believe you’d consider a factory Remington over a semi custom Tikka.. 😱 

    Apologies. I didn't have my glasses on when i looked at the pictures; which, to be fair, aren't the clearest. The stock coating is not the nicest I've seen.

    The only issue i have with that rifle is that it's single shot.
