I'm not real interested in a Tikka unless I can't find what I'm looking for. I've had a few and just didn't care for them. The accuracy I got out of them, I've got out of nearly every rifle I've had. A few exceptions of course.

I've got a Howa mini that I like a lot. The mag is cheap but it's workable and upgradeable. I think one of the draws of a .223 bolt is having it built on small, lightweight action.

If a mag isn't an AICS footprint,it's Dog Schit...pure and simple.

I picked up one of the last Kimbers from Whittakers and after the doing the standard modifications it is a half in. gun with three diff. loads. Love the gun but wish it did not have the threads on the end of the barrel.

This one works and shoots better than a Kimber, or even Cooper for that matter...

It hasn't the twist or COAL to hang,let alone the mounting system or glass. Congratulations?!?
Bless your heart for trying though.

You said the T3 don’t fit you so I’d third calling Whitaker’s for a Montana or there is a nice savage lightweight in the classifieds.
