Just wondering, has anyone tried factory loaded 190 grain long range accubonds in a Tikka T3 300 win mag? Will they fit in the magazine?

Since they are loaded to SAAMI specs, I'm betting they will. mtmuley

Thanks, I think I'll buy a box and see what they shoot like.

They might have to be seated a country mile off the lands but some guns don't mind that while some do mind the big jump into the riflings. Every rifle is different even within the same brand and model.

Any mag length 300 wsm cartridge will be a mile from the rifling. I have loaded some 210 gn LR Accubonds for the 300 wsm. Not only do they fit in the mag, they aren't compressed, and accuracy is decent.

Good deal! You've got a winner.
Like I said, every rifle is different and some don't mind the jump.
Keep up the good work,
