What kind of speed are you getting out of that 20" barrel?This rifle is a factory 6.5 PRC Tikka T3x Lite cut to 20" and threaded 9/16-24, set in a Stocky's Rokstok. I'm shooting a Silencerco Omega 36M suppressor fitted with an LS Wild cover, mounted on an Area419 Hellfire adapter. The stock is fitted with a Lumley Arms (Arctic) bottom metal and an Unknown Munitions bolt knob/handle. An SWFA 3-15x42mm gen 2 scope sits atop, mounted in UM medium rings and bubble level. I am currently using a Wilderness Systems Langlois Rhodesian Sling, but would prefer something with a non-slip shoulder pad.
I was having difficulty getting behind this rifle, until I added a Limbsaver Slip-on recoil pad to add some LOP to the stock. Looks like this stock needs to go back to UM for a spacer kit. This rifle comes fresh from the field with a "custom" ding in the objective bell and a touch of surface rust finish, after harvesting a spike bull.
I get 2735 roughly with factory 147 eldm.
They are good for the money. Good ergos, weight, and feel once you build the grip up a bit and add some texture…
They’re not a McMillan or Manners, but they are strong. As mentioned, trigger reach is a little long. But, absolutely the best deal you’ll get on a CF stock, that does what it should do. Get you one!
I've got a VG2 and a McMillan, strongly prefer the Stocky's. The fit/finish is not on the same level as the McMillan, but the ergos are better, especially if you send it to @Tanner first for his epoxy texture and palm swell job. Every time a buddy handles that stock they want to know where they can get one...can't be beat, let alone for the price. I hear guys complain about the trigger reach but I've got XL hands so can't comment.
Are those UM micro height tikka rings?
