Let's See Your Semi-Custom Tikka Builds

[Grizzle]

Assuming you're located in Canada, did you import your Rokstok directly through UM?

I orderd my first direct from UM then second I bought in stock at go big

How far does the barrel stick out from the stock? I'm really leaning towards the Manners LRH for my tikka build, but I will have a 16.5" proof research barrel. I'm trying to determine if there is enough barrel to accept an over the barrel suppressor.

Ill measure it this evening. its approx 5"-6". how much space do you need?

I really appreciate that! The Dead air Nomad OTB suppressor covers 3" of barrel and the Unknown OG-L covers 4" of barrel. On top of that my barrel is 1.5" shorter than your 18" barrel..

Thank you! And congratulations to your daughter on the graduation!

Thank you! And congratulations to your daughter on the graduation!

Thanks. Honor grad! Very proud. From the end of the forearm to the shoulder before the threads start is 5.25” I would guess 6” to the crown

Man, I greatly appreciate you getting that measurement! With my 16.5" barrel that would leave me 3.75" to the shoulder. That narrows down my suppressor choice for sure! Thank you again!

6cm I put together cause I was tired of waiting.
Factory stock with some additions, pb prefit at 20in, cerakoted and fluted with a Trijicon credo, of course in UM m rings sitting up top. Should be my go to rig for a while.View attachment 1064821

could be photo angle but is that seated on the recoil lug? look at the difference where the forend ends between your rifle and the rifles above yours in posts 3532, 3533 3534 I would double check.

Tikka T3 Superlite .308 in an AG Composites Privateer with upgraded steel recoil lug, lighter trigger spring, MT bottom metal, and DIY Backstop recoil pad. The rings are UM 1” micros and the scope is a 3-9x40 Zeiss Conquest MC.


It’s my workhorse. Weight is 7.25# exactly and it’s a fantastic walking gun for when quick and dirty offhand shooting might be required.

I just glass bedded the recoil lug and action screws yesterday so I’m looking forward to what kind of accuracy it will produce.

Almost forgot, SRS arca+pic rail up front for attachments.

Might swap scopes eventually but I want to stick with 1” tube and <42mm obj. A 2-10X or so….any suggestions

Assuming hunting rifle or another purpose? How often do you slide that bipod up and down the arca?

Yes hunting gun but will probably shoot some nrl hunter games with it too. Likely never move the bipod but the tripod will be clamped on the rail too when needed

Appreciate the mention, I’ll check.
