Chassis recommendations .300win mag Tikka T3x

Factory, but that would be based off the inlet/bottom metal anyway.

Tikka bolts are all the same length, it’s just the bolt face that’s different between my LA Magnum and my 2 SA.

If you’re looking for a chassis using an AICS mag then you won’t be using the bottom metal and therefore anything designed to take a tikka action will fit.
 
I settled on the KRG Echo in the end as a reasonably priced ergo stock. It uses the factory Tikka mags, which aren’t the best, but at least I know 100% that it will function and there’s no guessing about AICS mag size compatibility Bravo magwell.

The action is away getting screw cut and cerakoted at the moment so I have actually fitted it into the thing as yet.

All seems pretty well made and solid. I’m not keen however on how “open” everything is in the butt. There’s a lot of places for mud, water and general grime to gather and sit if you’re not careful. You can probably see what I mean in the picture below.

I ordered the LOP and quick adjustment screw for the cheek riser with it as well as the narrow barrel channel.

The only issue I’m having is with the cheek riser quick adjustment which appears to be a manufacturing defect. The captive bolt within the plastic adjustment nut is too short to be able to bite into the threads of the clamping piece for the riser arms. I’ve contacted March Scopes the UK importer so I’m just awaiting a response.
