He will set you up with precision mags. Mountain tactical also has mags.
I am not familiar with Other than t3(x) mags
Grs makes laminate stocks for Tikkas, were recently on sale at europtics.com.
The DNZ rings and mounts are first rate but I like the mountain tactical pic rails with seekins rings.
Make sure your not talking about the ctr. -

Nicely done David!

Check eBay for a stock you like.
Some come up fore sale
Boyd’s stocks might work but you will want to bed them with epoxy and pillars. Stokeys stocks are similar, bell and Carlson are available with aluminum pillars without fitting. I have not used any of these . I have used GRS berserker stocks with good results. -
If there is no debris in the bolt, it may be the spring. Curiously a weak mainspring can lead to blown primers which leave metal bits in the bolt which can interfere with the function. This happened to me with a ruger m77. A new main spring solved the problem . There was no way to diagnose the problem based on cartridge analysis since the primers looked ok.
All that said, giving the firearm to a good Smith is the best option. -
Late reply, but yea we are talking about the stocks. Good triggers on both, heavier barrel on Sako.
With the popularity of the tikkas there are more Smith’s working on them and rebarreling is no longer a big deal. So start with the less expensive Tikka, and make it your own. Or get the Sako range in 7mm or 300 and enjoy.

Would love it if Tikka would spin them up to 1:10

It sounds like you have a special edition , probably made for a specific vendor like Scheels, Cabelas or sportsman’s warehouse or other. I’m guessing that the wood is the special aspect and congrats on scoring a nice rifle. As far as value, I’m guessing that the extra value will be in the wood. If your selling it, make sure you photograph the wood well! Otherwise I don’t imagine it’s any more valuable than other similar wood stocked examples.

I’m sorry I don’t have any info on your request, I do know that you have a great rifle, I will try to find some info on it for you

If you really want to improve your stock, there are several aftermarket options available from Boyd’s (which require some work) to GRS which I like. The GRS Berserk is my personal favorite which needs no bedding. Their Bifrost has a bit “plasticy” feel to it I have heard. Their laminated versions will benifit from bedding I have heard. Dog is more experienced than me regarding pillars in factory stocks. I am a fan of mountain tactical bottom metal in any case.

Larkin is correct that Spuhr is the best but it will cost you. Mountain tactical has great pic rails and if you want solid rings you can get any of several rings that will work well with any optic you choose. Spuhr run as much as $400 and unless your optic is 10x$ that or your mounting a scope on a springer air rifle (the hardest on scopes)I would look at adamount or decent rail and seeking ring set up.
-
Have you done any testing with reloaded 26? I’m not even sure it is applicable in this caliber..
-
The Spuhr mounts are the gold standard but the addmount products are nicely done. They are certainly the best source for flip up lense caps.
-
Unless you or a previous owner messed with the internals, it is defective and Berreta should fix it. Contact them and send it in. No other good option.

Nicely done bolt
