Title: Tikka ftf
Post by: jdb on June 14, 2015, 08:42:46 AM

My son bought a tikka .22-250 with his graduation money and it won't feed from the magazine? Any ideas?

Probably a bad magazine.

Remove the stock and put it back together?  :dunno: sometimes their just missaligned. If that doesnt work take it back and get it replaced  :twocents:

Make sure that the magazine is firmly in place which means that you need to apply upward pressure until you hear the mag click into the locked position. 

If you don't clearly hear the 'click', it's not seated properly and won't chamber a round.

Good luck.

 :)if the action has been removed from the stock alot of guys miss on fitting the recoil lug in properly. I find it easiest to put the barrel up side down, put the lug in the slot properly and then sit the stock onto the action.
