Barnes 168gr .30 cal

[white van man]

Barnes TTSX .30

Been using 168gr in my Tikka 590 .308. Changed to a T3 (same cal) and at 50thou off they are too long for the mag. Anybody else come across this ????.

just measured old and new mag and the old one is 170 thou longer internal.

Ideas anyone ?????

Cheers Steve.

I have a T3 varmint in .308. Mag length is sized for max COAL of 2.800 inches on mine (2015 model). If your 168g TTSX are longer than this when seated 50 thou off, you will have to single feed them.
