How light can you get a tikka?

Thats light. What does LOP end up at in those P44 stocks? For some reason I had it in my head they were shorter than normal.

My Bastion is 13”. Pretty short for sure but it feels good.

My sample of one is 13.25”.

Personally, I prefer shorter LOP. It makes it easier to square up behind the rifle properly. Especially with layers or a pack on.

I think I looked into one at some point, that sounds like what I remembered. Totally fair on the length preference, Im just really tall and been grooved-in with longer for 30+ years, so it stuck with me. My plan on my current stock was to replace the current pad with a thicker microcell, should be same or maybe an ounce or two lighter than it is currently.

I am struggling to get below 8lbs all in. This includes a CAN. Maybe if I switch to airlock and Talley or Hawkins rings I can get there

Have you had a chance to put this together? Where did it end up?
Just got mine back from cut/thread as well. Mine landed at 6lb 12 oz for the gun + 3-9 trijicon in sportsmatch rings, so 7lb 5oz with my suppressor.

That is badass. Is a 19oz McMillan a typo?
