Tikka 595 Master Sporter Magazine Options

[virulosity]

I have a Master Sporter in 7mm-08. I hardly shoot it since I only have one 5 round mag for it. Are there any options for using 10 round Tikka or AI magazines? I am fine with buying a chassis if I have to, but the stock furniture is nice too. Should I just sell and buy a different rifle? Thanks

i have a master sporter as well. Nice rifle. I just sent mine out to get a new barrel. Brand new 7mm-08 magazines are still available for that rifle from several sources. The 7mm-08 magazine model number is S584037 per the Beretta website (Calibers: 243 Win, 7mm-08 Rem, 308 Win).

Beretta still sells magazines for that rifle:

That is a very nice rig, you should hold onto it. I have one in .223 I use as my trainer. I had it rebarreled to 1:8. The stock magazines were a PITA to deal with, hard to load, low capacity. I had the bottom metal changed out to accept Accurate Mags. Now I have 10 round capacity with cheap, easily available mags. Any competent smith should be able to do it. I think the BM was made by CDI.

i just tried to look up CDI but it looks like the proprietor has passed away. Wonder if anyone else makes bottom metal for the rifle?

Mountain tactical maybe? They do T3s but the inlet on the 595 may be different.

Or you can try these guys. They are in the UK but they may know where to source. https://www.lumleyarms.com

If you decide to sell let me know.

Do you enjoy getting banned?

I had CDN bottom metal made some years ago. Unfortunately, the guy passed. The action is similar to a T3 but not identical. A good smith may be able to do something for you. You can still get magazines for the 595s at Beretta: https://www.beretta.com/en-us/gun-accessories/rifles-carbines/tikka/discontinued-magazines/ My Master Sporter 595 is about my favorite rifle. Hope this helps.

Necro thread…

However, for anyone still looking, this guy makes mags for the factory T3x Tikkas, legacy 595, etc. and they are outstanding.

If someone knows how to get a AICS compatible bottom metal pls let me know.

No one will make bottom metal for the n595, the market is what, 25 people or so? Maybe out of plastic for a 3d printer as someone's passion project, but not to just sell and make money off of.

Midwest (linked above) and gunbroker are a good source for the m595 magazines
