Peak 44 Blacktooth Stock

[Backtrack65]

Just throwing some questions out, I'm debating on a build for a lightweight 22 creed. I've been eyeing the peak 44 black tooth. It seems like everything I want/need.

1: Is it a true drop in style?
2: Is it a slippery stock, I've held other carbon style stocks/chassis and they were slick in the palm swell and fore end.
3: Is there anything I should know going this direction?


I appreciate you all looking and giving feedback. Thanks!

1: The Peak44 I use was a direct drop in, just needed beading.
2: I don't find it slippery (unlike the stock it replaced; I needed grip tape on it). It doesn't have "extra grip texture" added.
3: I can't say there is anything weird you need to know. Do a search, there are a couple other threads on this brand stock.

Right on, I've done my fair share of research on it. But it seems as though what I find else where is pushed to promote. It may be deserving, although here it seems guys will give honest hands on review.

I appreciate the feedback

Not sure about the blacktooth, but assuming it is similar in feel/texture as the Bastion, it is definitely not slick or slippery in the hand.

Here's a couple threads that are in use. There are a few others on here/

Anyone put a peak 44 stock on a Christensen?

I emailed peak 44 and they said the barreled action will fit but the Christensen bottom metal will not. Curious if anyone has put one on and if it’s just that the CA bottom metal is thinner in depth and could be shimmed? Thanks for any info!

Peak 44 Bastion Tikka Review

Peak 44 is a Wyoming company producing carbon fiber rifle stocks. Their Blacktooth stock, featuring a swept grip, has been available for Tikkas. The more modern Bastion stock has not, until now. I handled the rem 700 pattern Bastion when a few Weatherby 307s came into my shop. I was impressed at...

I would assume they'd be abouts the same. Thanks!

Did you end up liking it? I just received mine today from Red Hawk rifles. And on top of it being the wrong barrel channel it had a lot of defects that were made prior to paint. I’m sure Red hawk will make it right but I’m very disappointed in the quality. I was excited because of the reviews and the weight of it! Back to the drawing board I guess! I hope yours worked well!

I've had a Blacktooth for a couple of years now on a R700. I like it a lot but I wish it was a Bastion. Grip and finish is much better than the Stocky's carbon stocks. It looks and feels much higher quality.

Choose wisely between the Blacktooth and Bastion.

Remember that if you have a Weatherby dealer near you there is a very high likelihood they will have rifles in both stocks in stock for you to fondle.

I had a couple cosmetic things but not as bad as that... The channel is also MUCH bigger than I thought even though the dimensions line up with the website.

I’m thinking I might stop by a local dealer and check them out. I’m curious about the finish and quality of them after seeing the on

I've got a bastion for a tikka and it was a direct drop in, shoots great unbedded. I like the finish on them, its not slick imo, it feels simialr in finish to an AG composites I have.

Mine had none of those issues. I ordered from Peak 44 directly however. I don't know why anyone would not do that.

The reason is others have them in stock and you can have it in a week be 3 months. That being said it’s on Peak for the damage not the retailer. All the damage is pre finish.
