Found a micky sako hunter for sale cheap locally, inletted for a tikka m65 with the magnum fill. Two questions. Will it take much work to make it suit a t3 action? And secondly, how heavy are stocks with the magnum fill? How much would a t3 weigh roughly with this stock? Seeing as the wait to get a micky to australia is 5-6 months, seeing this listing has me hoping it could work! You only live once.

Check that first. "Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life." (Prov 4:23) Brother Keith
