Which Tikka bottom metal

[wildwilderness]

Been working on my son’s Left Hand Tikka T3 lite.

What are the best options for new bottom metal? Best value over the factory plastic?

Iv been happy with the mountain tactical for stock mags. If your patient they will have a sale, they seem to every few months. Their newest metal mags have been working perfectly as well.

Does anyone make the bottom metal in stainless?

I have a mountain tactical and so far I like it just fine.

I've got the bottom metal from Mountain Tactical and it's been great so far. Worked well with the original stock. I also ordered their aluminum magazine which is much nicer than the original plastic one that came with the gun.

I’ve got mountain tactical on one of my Tikkas. It was on the rifle when I got it so I can’t speak of the “value”. It does look nice and works. But the stock plastic works too. My first Tikka I’ve had for 14 years now and no issues with the plastic.

I ordered the High Desert Rifleworks. I haven’t received it yet so don’t know the quality but I’ve heard they’re very good.

I used the Atlas Works due to availability but it worked great in a semi custom build. Factory mag fits perfect.

Haven't heard of Atlas Works, looks like the best value so far

Another vote for Mountain Tactical and It has ran factory mags flawless in a T3 Super Lite 7RM bedded into a McMillan Edge..... I did have an Atlas bottom metal before the Mountain Tactical and I did not care for it because it had a wide trigger guard that felt awkward and the finish was just ok, it did function just fine though.

+1 for the Mountain Tactical BM

I've used the Mountain tactical on three rifles with no complaints.

Yes, I have a Lumley arms 316 marine grade stainless bottom metal for AI mags. Not sure if they still make these but mine is for sale and it has been cerakoted in OD green. Very top quality BDM

Have used atlas worx and mountain tactical. Prefer atlas worx and it's cheaper. The spring in the mag release is weaker on the mountain tactical and my heavier recoil rifle would sometimes drop the mag after a shot

I have the Mountain Tactical on my Tikka and it works great. Also the trigger guard is larger so it works better with gloves.
