Welcome. You might get more input on this if you post in the firearms section. The other “stock” mods I can think of are vertical grip, bipod, ream out the barrel channel in the fore-end to ensure barrel is free floating, adjustable cheek riser.

Welcome.

There are a couple of factory stock mod threads. It's pretty low effort to knock down the fore end support point on a factory stock and free float it with Dremel or sandpaper.

Thread 'Free Float Barrel in Tikka Factory Plastic Stock'

May 15, 2023

Hi. I recently picked up a T3x and am doing some mods to it. I have opened up the barrel channel a bit to ensure the barrel is fully free floated. This was quite easy when using a deep socket wrapped in sandpaper. It only took 20 minutes and turned out great.

However, now that I’m putting things back together, I noticed the first 2.5” of the barrel is not free floated. I’d like to remove that plastic on the stock. What is the best method for doing so? It isn’t as easy as the main barrel channel because it is angled. I’d like the finished job to look professional and not like a dremel...

Thread 'How I Modify My Tikka Factory Stocks'

This is the start to finish process I use on my tikka factory stocks to help them have a consistent POI and improve shootability. None of this is completely new information, but there are a few unique things I do, and this is a consolidation post.

This is stuff that I'm capable of doing to my personal possessions - if you try this and mess up your own stuff, that is on you. Step 1 is basically fool proof, even if you quit halfway through the stock will still function. The rest of the steps, once you start, your stock will not function until the step is finished.

Step 1: Free Float
