Thanks for the tip. The Optilocks shown came w/ the rifle. I have since replaced the forward base w/ the correct one for the III action, so it doesn't hang over the ejection port. Picked up a spare mag and sling swivels from 'fire members.

This rifle has one of the slickest actions of any bolt action I've handled.
