    For the Tac A1, is the handguard interchangeable with other standard MLok handguards?

    Thanks. Yes. Here is a pic of our LA TRG DBM in a Manners EH1-A And our LA AICS in a McMillan A3

    Correct. The regular T3 factory stock is too narrow for SA AICS bottom metal and magazines and requires removing quite a bit of plastic from an already flimsy stock. We wanted to create an option for a drop in ready DBM for guys with the factory stocks or aftermarket stocks with T3 inlet. There...

    6.5 PRC vs 300 wsm

    Yes Dan. Standard 3.715” 300 WM AICS magazines. We shifted the mag well posteriorly. Rounds don’t slide forward in my 280ai and haven’t had reports from customers but if they did putting a spacer in the front of the mag would be a solution

    6.5 PRC vs 300 wsm

    Our Tikka nEXTgen AICS DBM allows OAL of 3.50” with NO modification of your action or trigger housing. It shares the same bottom metal inlet as the factory T3 so fits in factory stock after filing about 1/8” from inside of stock. Drop in ready for McMillan and Manners stocks.

    Our DBM does not require any modification of the feed ramp or trigger housing and allows an OAL of 3.5”. To get more than that you’d have to notch the feed ramp.

    I’ve got several long action builds on tikka actions using our (RedSnake Tactical) AICS long action bottom metal — a 280ai and 30 Nosler done by ZG Customs and a 7mm Rem Mag built by Alamo Precision. Will fit in factory stocks and McMillan and Manners offer our inlet as well.

    6.5 PRC

    We’ve just released our Extended M5 bottom metal that allows OAL 2.95” . Our design shares the same footprint/inlet of standard M5 but we shifted the mag well back 0.100” (patent pending) to allow reliable magazine feeding without having to machine/notch the feed ramp. Feeds very smoothly as...

    Who builds 6.5 PRC OTHER THAN GAP OR SAC?

    Extended M5 DBM allows OAL of 2.95

    We are wrapping up production of our first run of our short action Extended M5 Bottom Metal. We found a way to move the mag well back 0.100” (patent pending) so feed ramp/action doesn’t have to be modified to reliably feed rounds like 6.5 PRC at OAL of 2.95”. Despite the design modification it...

    These only take the AI AE MKi 308 Magazine. The regular SA AICS mags are shorter but too wide for factory stocks/inlets. There are a lot of good options for bottom metal for those mags as well as the new Manners mini chassis. We were wanting to make this DBM to give guys running OEM stocks a...

    We have just released our short action tikka DBM. It is a drop-in replacement for factory stocks and aftermarket stocks with factory inlet. It uses Accuracy International AE MKI 308 magazines, which are a single stack 5 round mag that allows an OAL of 2.95”

    Got a 22 Creed build underway. Picked up a TAC A1 chassis from a fellow SH member. Donor T3 action. Just waiting on my 1:7 Hardy CF bbl to get here.

    I got a chance to handle a TAC A1 in 223 today at NRA show. They have an insert in the regular CTR magazine.

    I have my CTR in an A3 which McM inlet for CTR DBM. Game Scout is too narrow for the CTR bottom Metal.

    Tikka T3 Thread

    I have a game Scout for my Tikka rebarrelled in 280ai — it’s my favorite stock (my A3 and EH1A are a close second). The CTR Bottom Metal is slightly too wide for the game Scout. You can have it opened up but the edges of the bottom inlet on stock won’t quite wrap around the edges of the...
