New Backfire Lightweight Hunting Chassis?

[dårlig jeger]

It did seem like BF took some shots at the rokstok in his marketing video.

He featured the rokstok in his SHOT show recap years ago and was intrigued by the pad being above the bore.

In his chassis video he mentions his recoil pad geometry was above the bore for better shoot ability, but added that the folder was a solution for cleaning rods because it folded out of the way.

What are thoughts on this chassis in comparison to some of the other ones on the market? I’ve no experience with a chassis but stumbled onto this one. Price is in Canadian bucks so not priced to bad. Not to derail thread, just thought it was an interesting comparison.

I can’t comment on that product specifically, but my interactions with that company have been great. I’ve purchased five different sets of bottom metal from them and the quality has always been outstanding.

First glance - the cheek piece looks to be forward of where I’d actually make contact with it and the barely existent fore end is dumb.

I have one. The cheekpiece can be flipped around. No problems there.

What cartridge do you have in it? Balance, shootability, ergos etc…?

Please keep the thread on track. It's crazy how out in the weeds some of these get.

I get it, but it is a directly related competitor product and I think worth at least a little discussion until someone makes another thread on it. Maybe I'll do that if it doesn't exist. I think it's a really interesting chassis.

Here is one in case anyone is interested

I think his comment was directed at people discussing Form's tax returns...

Maybe that was deleted... I never saw it but I am sure that would be interesting. Lots of deductions from Starbucks on "work trips".
