Are long and short Tikkas built on the long action differing only by the bolt stop?
Will the shorter magazines fit in my long action.?
Short action bolt stop work on the long action?

Anything else I am missing?


Thanks,

Yes, the actions are the same except for the bolt stop.
Yes, the magazines will fit in either action--in fact you should take care not to mix them up if you have two rifles on the bench at the same time.
Yes, the short bolt stop will work in the long action.
Not sure if you're missing anything else.
