Tikka Ace Game .223 - Magazine choice ?

The Ace Game rifle comes standard with the Tikka polymer 5 shot magazine. Is this likely to be trouble free or is there a worthwhile upgrade / conversion you would recommend ?

In addition it has no sling mounts. Those of you with this rifle what are the options please ?

Can't see why it would be an issue?

I believe the only option on an upgrade for the Ace Game is to change out the bottom metal to the CTR bottom metalwork (which is what is in the Ace Targets).

That ties you into the CTR mags though, which are... pricey....

Yes, had explored that option, but I was thinking an ACIS conversion may be possible ?

 

[chriswjx]

Not as far as I'm aware. There is supposed to be a factory adapter to convert the ctr bottoms to accept acis, but not seen anything more about it

Buy the tikka 223 mag with the metal lips when yours wears out.
