Tikka "Rokslide Special", let's see 'em

Associated question:

Does anyone know if the T3x/SWFA combo will got in a Kolpin gun boot? I want to add a carrier to my motorcycle, but I'm concerned about the height of the elevation turret.

If it's any help, I'm specifically looking at the Stronghold or any of the flip-lid versions.
The models with the slide off cap won't work.

I had one of the red shag lined gun boots (think it was a kolpin flip-lid) that fit a marlin 336 with scope mounted in high see thru rings. That was 25+ years ago though so not sure the models are still the same or not or if it was a flip lid for sure.
If so i would think it should fit a tikka w/swfa.
 
I was under the impression that the chubbier prc rounds did not feed well out of the LA magazines. Can you confirm that that you're using the standard LA magazine and have no issues cycling PRC rounds? Can you fit three in the mag?
I run a long action MT Billet mag on a 6.5 PRC. So far so good, but it doesn't have a ton of rounds yet. Ran them on a 300 WSM with good success.
 
I’m dropping off my new .223 T3x at the gun smith to chop and thread for suppressor (hyperion k). Thoughts on 18,19 or 20” barrel?
 
That’s great feedback! I was leaning towards 20 for a couple extra FPS. Does chopping an additional two inches far out weigh the extra 50FPS? @Antares?
