i sympathise, but no one else in the world is making quality replacement magazines for Tikkas, including Tikka itself. $185, that is $120 american, for a replacement mag for your ancient rifle is a good deal. You said yourself why he’s not answering emails. You said you just bought it. You said he’s away for the next few weeks. Be patient. You are getting something you can’t get elsewhere. I hate waiting as well. I ordered a BLR replacement magazine from Cleavers. As in the past, when you order more than one type of item at a time, if it doesn’t jump out at them, they’ll send half your order and cancel the rest of the order and charge $18 regardless. So I waited and ordered the mag all by itself. Suddenly it was in stock. I did this with sierra roo-king projectiles. Made the mistake of ordering them with another item the first time. Second time I ordered them separately, and suddenly they were in stock. But I’m not getting upset because I’m getting a good deal on certain specific, unobtainium items. I hope you get a replacement magazine. The one I got four years ago in 6.5×55 is perfect. Tikka, for the same money wants to sell me a plastic one with less capacity. I’m patiently waiting for this bloke to make a 30-06 6 shot magazine batch so I can buy one. Where else am I gonna get a metal version for less than the manufacturer charges? So I’ll wait I guess.
