Hey guys, thought id ask since you guys are a knowledgeable bunch. 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!

I've got one of each, at least, and my first concern would be that the T3 has an aluminum recoil lug that goes crossways ahead of the action, and I don' know that the M65 has a similar contraption there. Check that first.

I thought about that, you make a good point. Apart from the recoil lug are the actions similar enough that it could work?
