[QUOTE="DBoone, post: 1533136, member: 104920"] My first world problem: Tikka T3 lite blued 338 Win Mag or Tikka T3X lite blued 338 Win Mag Can anyone explain to me the differences in the ejection ports. I'm wondering if the new T3X has any real advantage in this area, regarding COAL. Is magazine length still going to be the most limiting part of either gun for hand loads? I'd like to run a 210-250 grain bullet (Accubond's, Hammer's, or TTSX's). Most of my research has lead me to a max COAL in the Tikka's of approximately 3.400" and it seems that people can make that work. Maybe I'm over thinking it, but if I had more overall length in one or the other, then I'd have more case capacity and more options to work with jump. Both rifles are brand new, but the T3 would leave more room in my budget for a new stock. Thanks in advance Dan [/QUOTE]
