Peak 44 Bastion Tikka Review

[FOS373]

Are these working with factory magazines? I have OMR bottom metal, so I would assume so. Just dont want to make the same mistake I did with the HNT 26, which will only take a specific 5 rd aics magazine in the long action. Thinking of selling it because of that.

Mine worked with factory mag

Yes OMR bottom metal will work with Peak 44. OMR installs both with their Tikka upgrade package.

I ordered a Bastion on Black Friday. Got it last week. Haven't used it yet, as the local sportsman club is closed due to bad weather in January.

The included recoil lug fit quite loose. So I did some bedding. Will see how that works out. Can always Dremel it out and redo if I somehow screwed it up.

How much were you able to get it for at Black Friday?

This may be addressed earlier in the thread but I didn’t see it. How are you guys storing these? Peak44 told me not to have them stand up on the hex recoil pad.

Peak really missed the mark with their “special” recoil pad. I have the stock and am looking for an aftermarket replacement pad to add LOP and minimal weight. Overall the stock is nice but is still lacking grip on the pistol and fore end.

I store my muzzle down in my safe, but it has a suppressor attached to it all the time.

Peak makes a good stock. I’ve been very happy with my blacktooth on a tikka. I’ll be picking up a bastion for sure to put on then 7mm prc build I have in progress.

How did the build go? Did you just swap out the stock on a new Tikka? I’m looking to buy a 7mm PRC Tikka and replace the stock with a Bastion.

I did not ended up getting a bastion for the 7 mm PRC. Still have a couple blacktooth that I continue to like, but ended up using a takeoff tikka varmint stock on my 7mm 7 prc build as I did not mind the additional weight.
