How did your project turn out? I’m planning to do this same thing with an old 308 that’s in the safe. Did you leave the back end of the boss system on the gun and run the thread adapter up to that and call it a day? Or did you take everything off so it’s just bare threads?
I own a discontinued vortex tripod, it has worked great for what I do! I wanted to try some new things for glassing and potentially shooting off the tripod. I was bummed to see the quick release plate is discontinued as well... I was struggling to find anything online. I sent Vortex an email...
I actually called Joe about that and he mentioned he would be able to install an adjustable cheek piece on an EH1TK if needed. Nice to have that option!
Prior to that, I called Manners to see if they would be able to build my stock with an adjustable cheek piece and I was told no... I thought...
I purchased the Manners EH1TK - Factory bottom metal. My hesitation with it was that it didn't have an adjustable cheek piece. turns out it's a non issue with the scope / ring / base combo that I am running.
Does anyone notice accidental bolt lift with these UM Tikka bolt handles? I purchased a Sterk last year and have experienced (some) issues with the bolt lifting.
I own a Browning X-Bolt OD green in a 6.5CM. Just picked it up this spring. It’s a nice little gun for the money in my opinion. Trigger is a little heavy. It shoots well!!!
