Are you running their extended length 3.715 AICS metal? If so, how's it work for you? Any feeding issues? Able to run anything longer than the 3.5 COAL they recommend?

No, just the regular bottom metal. It's worked flawlessly. No issues whatsoever. Feeds perfect.

I haven't tried to run anything longer yet.

Finally got my Rokslide special pieced together.

Tikka T3X .223
Bare carbon Rokstok with the trinity rail
SWFA 10x
Low UM Rings

Debating on medium rings, but think I’ll shoot a bit first and see. Just waiting on my can to be released from jail, but ready to start shooting. Also debating building another in 6CM or fast twist .243.

Hows the muzzle blast with a short barrel and brake? I’m looking to build one just like that but maybe a 20” barrel.

sick build. double check that it's seated on the recoil lug though. I don't think it is. (compare yours to how the forend and barrel are parallel in this pic, yours looks off ) it may shoot even better ; )

Not bad at all, it’s been surprisingly manageable to control

Wish I could deny it, but I think you’re right. I’ll fix it and update my post when I get it sorted.

Thanks, and good catch.
