I believe Tikka Performance has a similar product in the works, FYI... I think you may be right. Hopefully, someone will have something available this year. I just finished putting this 223 Varmint rifle together. The metal BM is really nice.

Great looking Tikka David! Is that a McM A3-5 stock? Bet it's a tack driver.

Shot it today with the can. Honest 1/2 in her at 100 yards. Momma was banging steel with alarming regularity out to 440 ( all this range had to offer).

Great stuff! That's a sweet rig. My T3 varmint 223 now wears an SWFA 10x Mil/MilQ scope as well. I really like that scope.

I contacted him and he looked into it but ultimately decided that he couldn't swing it. I did speak with Jason at Tikkaperformance and the good news is they are going to start producing an anodized aluminum BM that accepts factory mags. Should be out this year.

If they can do it without an exorbitant price tag, they'll have a hit

For that money, the AICS mod is worth the effort.

$1 = 8,33 SEK
And by shipping overseas, I belive VAT is excluded, so 1500 SEK/8,33 = $180 give or take.

Awesome!! I love rifles that like Nosler partitions..
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA
