Longer .223 Tikka mag option

@Fireflyfishing , your pictures make me think that maybe the mag well in the krg stock is longer than in a Tikka stock. Maybe try putting some built up layers of tape or some epoxy on the rear of the mag to see if that helps. If it doesn't work you could sand the epoxy off.

Also, if you decide to go with a different mag I might be open to buying one from you.

Since these are printed, it would seem easy enough for them to tweak the file and build up that area of the mag a bit. They'd probably need their own Echo to do this (not sure how popular it is either, so may not be a problem that they see worth solving).
 
It’s already been said but Adam’s customer service is great. I had issues with the older green follower deforming and he sent me replacements right away. I own these and the waters and prefer these even though you need to source your own spring.
 
I shot with the ascension mag a lot more yesterday. I noticed that I occasionally get a round that hangs up for a fraction of a second when cycling. I'm 95% sure it is the case mouth hitting the front mag lip as I'd mentioned earlier. If I were to try to cycle the bolt gently, I think it may be a problem. But since I was running it like I meant it, it was more like a solid "bump" when going through that portion before the cartridge exited the mag.

Does anyone have any suggestions for solutions? Maybe filing a bevel into the front mag lip edge so that it's not a 90* angle the case mouth hits?
