Now, finally, I can see those heavies way out. It took a while, but it was worth it, by the way, phenomenal quality.

FYI

https://tikkaperformance.com/mountain-tactical-company

That looks great but I don't see them listed anymore. I would like to have one though.

Fotis, are these caliber specific or action length specific?

Maybe it was a special run? Not sure guys. Give them a call great people. Caliber specific.

Did you need to change the bolt stop?

I have one as well. It's dang hard to click into the mag release. No different bolt stop is needed.

Yep, hard to get seated and mine doesn't work well at all

Mine works like the original

If it works anywhere as good as it looks, it'll be a great mag.

The first two I received wouldn’t work. The bolt wouldn’t go past the feed lips. Super tight fit and the magazine latch wouldn’t close when the magazine was finally inserted. I emailed them several months ago and received replacements today. I’ll try them tomorrow and see if they work. I’ll report back with findings....

Yeah, same issue for me. Been so busy I haven't contacted them

One I got for my son doesn’t lock up properly and “hangs” at the back so the bolt does not pick up a cartridge.

Need to call and see what they can do.

As promised, I'm reporting back....

My two new mags function perfectly. They're a tad tight to seat, but not nearly as tough as the first two. Looks like the replacement mags will get lots of use! Hats off to them for fixing the issue!

Hey do any of you guys use the mags with their MT bottom metal? Wonder if it works better with theirs rather than factory?

Here's THE thing...if ANY bolt gun DBM magazine deviates from an AICS footprint,it is assuredly a piece of fhuqking schit. Hint.

Now Fotis is EASILY amongst THE Dumbest Of Fhuqks,because the only thing she "shoots" is her mouth. No "news" there. Tikka is reliably amongst the WORST with mag "designs",as they purposely skirt reliability,durability and logistics to "offer" hilariously inept Fhuqkig Dog Schit.

MT "tries",but they farm out all of their wares and setback to reap "rewards" that are NOT their's. Why in THE fhuqk,would they not allow gravity to work,connect dots and bask in the simple satisfactions of a WELL established footprint,which is THE high water mark?!?

For durability,reliability,logistic support,commonality and COAL...an AICS footprint has no contest. NONE.

Ask Fotis how "many" rounds She's "shot" through said device. LAUGHING!






Fotis...you STUPID Fhuqker. LAUGHING!



Oops.



Congratulations?!?

Bless her heart.

LAUGHING!.....................

Well Hell's Bells. Thank God we have you around here to tell us what we do and how to do it.

Hopefully you'll be around next Thanksgiving so we can all have something to be thankful for.

Teeker Rules.
Teeker Rules.
Fuqck Teeker!

LMFAO!

Sorry but Big Stick is right, those things are a joke.

Sadly mistaken. Big schtick is a joke

The mag or the rifle?

Both are working great for me.

As far as him being right? That does not matter. The way Lawrence conveys his messages no one can either understand him or take him seriously. Sounds like a 3 year old with PMS.

I was just looking through all the "Tikkas Suck" threads.....

I never understood it. Stickhead rails on Tikka but will buy a Ruger American and sing its praises after having to buy a stock for it. Loony logic I guess....Let me guess, he has the luxury not to have to guess?

He has the luxury of a fifth of whiskey combined with a one post per day restriction

He has the luxury of being an idiot who has a few fans on here who egg him on

KenBitchigan,

The only thing you "shoot" is your mouth and Imagination. Congratulations?!?

Folks who "know" and "do" as "much" as you...are ALWAYS best served by asking questions,rather than giving "answers".

Hint.

Bless your heart.

Laughing!.................

alwaysdull,

Ruger gets farrrrrr more schit right,than Teeker do.

Teeker manages to fhuqk up ALL magazines,is clueless in general and eeks Goat Fhuqk after Goat Fhuqk. Hell...even Ruger knows to go with an AICS DBM. Hint. Laughing!

The new Teeker Rimfire,yet another steaming pile of schit. CM,horribly botched mag and an '06 receiver to boot. Hint. Laughing!



It's never been difficult to cypher,who shoots and who don't.

Hint.

Bless your heart.

Laughing!..................

Kchuntis,

Be SURE to cite any/all words I used,that are "too Technical" or "too big" for you and I'll happily use lesser versions,just for you. Congratulations?!?

Chime in,after you actually have used The Goat Fhuqk magazine.

Hint.

Bless your heart.

Laughing!.......................

Used it today extensively with shorty 223's and long loaded ones. Not a single hiccup!!! Smooth feeding with no issues.

I was part of the early bird first generation ordering cycle. I ordered four .223, bright red.

The bad: oh-fer on all four in the feeding department. One wouldn’t feed at all, the other three would feed, grudgingly, only if I inserted the mag with the bolt closed.


The good: I contacted MT, they checked the date of my order, yep, first generation, we had problems with these. Keep the guts, we’ll send you new shells. Two red, two gray.

So far the customer service has been excellent.





P

that's good news. Are they still available? When I checked online last week, they did not show as available.

Call them.

tel:406-285-2371

Nice folk.




P

Roger that.

Got my 6 round mag, it feeds and functions great.

I got my six round .223 mag earlier in the fall. It works fine. It has a secure fit and 100% feeding.

The good:

The replacement shells came today. When they say they’ll ship now, they mean now. The cutout on the top at the tail end of the cartridge is a significantly different shape.

The bad:

None of them function. I swapped the guts, loaded four, inserted the mag in my T3, one no problem, two no problem, three ran over the top. Put two more in, same issue. Tried different shells, same issue. Tried the guts from a different mag, same issue.

Maybe it’s the rifle!

Nope. Tried the other T3, this one a Superlite. See above.

Repeat with mag #2. Same.

Mag #3. Yep.

Mag #4. Yep.

Now, like Forrest said, I’m not a smart man but I know how to load a magazine. Something like that, anyway. I’m willing to accept operator error (I mean really, oh-fer eight, in two rifles?) but I don’t see how.

Any ideas?

Original on the left, replacement on the right.







P

I called MT just now, Andrea is sending me videos on magazine insertion and the magazine retaining spring. We’ll see.

Update, video file is huge, didn’t load. You’d think they’d have a vid on YouTube, or a link on their website.


P

I borrowed my brother’s 8 round mag, everything I fed through it cycled like it got paid to do it.

The looong 80 gr ELDM fed flawlessly.




P

Mountain Tactical customer service is superb.




P

Got my three 6-round replacement mags yesterday, just in time to wrap them and put them under the tree. They’re rated for 6 rounds but hold eight. I loaded them with seven and tested them for function. Flawless.

Mountain Tactical rocks!




P

You couldn't "critique" a single sheet of ass wipe.

Hint.

Laughing!..................

This is why people don’t like you.

You lash out at people for no reason. No provocation. No class.

There was a time that I really valued your experience and willingness to help. You very graciously answered my questions and gave freely of your time. Your patience with my ignorance was truly inspiring. In fact, you are one of the reasons I am so willing to give of my time and experience, as limited as it is.

But man, you really turned into a dick.





P

You simply remain a CLUELESS/Inept Fhuqk and the humor never wanes. Congratulations?!?

I'm rather at ease in a Popularity Contest,if that helps soothe your DumbFhuqktitude.

Hint......................

The fire will never be constipated with an a-hole that grandiose

KenBitchigan,

Be SURE to chime in,when funds align your Imagination and Pretend.

Hint.

Laughing!...............

Fig Lick,

Be SURE to revel about your battered guns and rotting fish.

Suggestion.

Serious!...……………...

KenBitchigan,

GREAT time to wax eloquent upon the "Sweet Satisfactions' that our your's,in quantifying how Imitation,remains THE most Sincere form of Flattery. Pardon actual use,troubling you so...as you swoon Fluff and greedily read my every word and gawk my every Splendid Pixel. Hint. Congratulations?!?

Be sure to start a Thread,if/when you ever leave the house,to yet again "shoot" your Imagination and all of it's Pretend.

Bless your heart.

The current rainfall makes it sound like yet another CM/Living Wood day. Google it and nod your head,like you "understand",as you set mired on the sidelines,suffering being you.

Hint.

Laughing!...............

YES, Mountain Tactical is a great company.

What is the interior dimensions of the mag?

My wife opened the package and wrapped the magazines for me as a Christmas present. I just noticed that MT threw in an extra as a thank you for my patience. That’s customer service!





P

You can wrap Dog Schit,however you please...but it don't change results.

Hint.........................

Yes, they treat customers great and have exceptional products

The less you "do",the "better" they are. Hint. Congratulations?!?

laughing!...............

Bueller.....Bueller.....Bueller?

No dog in this fight, but sometimes I wonder........

B,

with all the time you take accumulating stuff, writing messages to yourself on every conceivable item/object, chasing fish, tossing guns into streams, then posing all said items for photos, then post photo processing, do you ever actually get out and shoot, much less hunt?



Or do they have 36 hour days in Paradise?

Quien Sabe,

GWB

Geedub....

I went hunting once with my Tikka .223 and didnt even have a billet mag...

The hell you say!

Funny that those who talk the most usually have the least to say. Congrats on your @$$hole of the year award Little Stick.
You sir are an [bleep].

Hint

Ooooopsie!









"Tell" me "more".

HINT.

Laughing!.....................

No problem B'



















some folks are writers..........


others do stuff!

ya!

GWB

I’d have to take one apart. Are you looking for max COAL?





P

Josh,
The MT mag allows a COAL of 2.60”, plenty of room.
As an aside, I picked up some gen 2 bottom metal from MT when it was on sale. Their 223 billet mag works flawlessly in that BM.
That dang super varmint 223 will stack the Fiocchi factory 50 grain VMaxes into a tiny cluster at 100 yards.
Looking forward to flinging some ELDs in it...

ONLY a Texan,could not ID a 223.

Bless your heart for TRYING.

Congratulations?!?..........................

So these billet mags are good to go now?
