And for those of you with inquiring minds...

The only change I see to the mag is additional mag box space. The new magbox (the one I measured) measures 2.98". The older Tikka T3 (and X) mag measures 2.84". The new mag is designated as "M+", the old mag is just "M". This is perfect n my opinion. The new mag fits old rifles and the old mags fit the new rifle. The bolt stop appears to be in the same location as well.

The original mags should have been what the new one is...

I enjoy handguns and I really like shotguns,...but I love rifles!
