Make your Tikka awesome for $85 - Full Frame Outdoors Tikka Stock Kit

Someone that is 3d printer savvy needs to copy this but mod it. Although it would require cutting the toe of your stock flat, I think it would functionally be better. Extend cheek to connect to higher butt pad. Cut toe flat. Bag rider would cover hole in toe and connect to the butt pad sort of like they did. Sides of rider could go up over stock about an inch for stability and mounting options. It may not be a big seller but if someone printed me one I'd buy it.

Following as this looks like an interesting economical upgrade that could be a great value add. Looking forward to see people's experiences with it

Agreed - a little modification and I think it’d do really well.
 
Maybe I missed it. But what recoil pad is compatible with the rear end….that isn’t stock if I’m not mistaken.

If you take the bottom piece you cut off you can just tape it on the top, and with a $12 pachmayr butt pad spacer you end up with something like this.

Got mine in the mail today. Some initial impressions in no particular order:

  • The fit on the pieces is tight, like OEM tight. I was really impressed with how they "snapped" into place
  • I ordered the medium cheek riser version, and it give me basically the perfect cheek weld
  • The finish is a bit more textured than I would like. I could see it collecting a lot of dirt but time will tell
  • I didn't realize it from the photos, but probably should have, you have to remove the rear sling stud to use the bag rider. Not an issue for me because I use a Kifaru Gun Bearer rather than a sling, but worth keeping in mind if you use a sling
  • The grip is noticeably thicker than the Tikka vertical grip. I think I'm a fan, but need to see how it actually feels when shooting.
  • The extra LOP and change in recoil pad angle you get from the bag rider is really nice. I'm 6'4 and have long arms, so probably needed a bit extra LOP on my rifle anyway. I could see it being an issue for smaller shooters.
I probably won't be able get to the range for a few weeks, but I'm excited to see if I notice major differences over stock when shooting. Just based on my initial impressions, I think the kit was well worth the ~$90
