tikka t3 lite

Does the t3 lite have to be fed from the magazine or can a round be chambered by just putting a round in the chamber and closing the bolt?

Hello.
 I would "spoon feed" my Tactical in .308 all day long. As well as my .243 Lite model. My .223 Lite does not seem to like it as much and the round sometimes gets hung up....it is better to feed from the mag for the .223.

Take care,Stan

Both of my T3's feed well for single shots.  3006 and 223.

At the range I just drop a round in that tiny opening and close the bolt no big problem.  Hunting I just put the loaded magazine in my coat pocket and when I am safely in my stand install it .
