Tikka t3x Varmint 6.5cm in an MDT XRS
My hand loads are at 2.920 oal so I need an aics mag w/o the binder plate.
I have a 5rd AI mag that will not fit and a Magpul that fits, but only because I ground the crap out of it!
Any recommendations? I was looking at the MDT metal mag or the ARC.
 
I'm using Accurate Mags in mine, can't complain.
 
I wonder if the metal AI mags will fit, the polymer MDT and metal AI both refuse to seat in the Browning X-Bolt Target Max because they hit the bottom of the magwell.

I need to look at the Accurate Mags to see if they will work. Then there's Curtis, Snowy Mountain and a bunch more.

Magpuls don't really ever work in tikkas. The bottom of the Tikka doesn't like it no matter what chassis you use.

I use the accurate mags I got from krg in my whiskey 3.
