shotgun--here is a link for Tikka aftermarket clips. They aren't cheap and if you are looking for one to use in a 22-250, you may want to get one for the 243/308. Otherwise the clip for the 22-250 may be too short to allow seating the bullets out so they are close to or touching the lands. I know in my Tikka Master Sporter, the magazine is too short to fit the bullets when seated near the lands.

The trigger is quite easy to adjust. I think you should probably buy a metric allen wrench for this procedure, but I used my standard non-metric set. Here is the illustration and under it I will list the exact instructions listed on page 16 of my TIKKa M595/695 RH Manual.
STANDARD TRIGGER MECHANISM
-The trigger has no first pull and the trigger pressure is set at the factory to approx. 15N.
-Both the sear engagement and safety are set at the factory and need no adjustment of any kind.
-Should you wish to alter the trigger pressure, the stock must first be detached. To do this, remove the trigger guard fastening screws.
TRIGGER ADJUSTMENT (Figure above)
-The trigger pull is adjustable from 10 N to 20 N by means of the screw 1.
-Turning the screw clockwise will increase the pressure. Turning the screw counterclockwise will reduce the pressure.
NOTE! FOR SAFETY REASONS DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REDUCE TRIGGER PRESSURE BELOW 10 NEWTON (2 LBS).
-When assembling the firearm always remember to put the aluminum recoil block into place in the stock.
I hope this will be of some assistance to you shotgun. There is some gummy, rubber-like substance on the screw 1 that keeps it from vibrating loose. I had to turn mine out to the point it was contacting the metal piece that comes down from the top-front of the trigger mechanism. I adjusted it to approximately 2 lbs of pull. I haven't fired it yet, but the trigger feels real smooth.
