Rokstok Lite

[Davidson51]

Sorry if I missed it, but when will these be available to buy?

I’ve been trying to stay in the loop, but may have missed something: any updates on the Rokstock lite bottom metal situation for Kimbers?

@Unknown Munitions
Any luck on getting the Rokstock lite inlet for Kimber 84M & 84L actions?

I’ll be ordering a wood Rokstok Lite this fall - assume with a sporter inlet I can still do a rail up front and a QD cup on the left side?

Bump. I’ve got a 22CM build itching for one of these.

Mines beyond itching. It’s turned into an open wound

After your informal class have you decided to switch from the hnt26 chassis? I would greatly appreciate any thoughts you have after taking the class, although this may not be the thread for that.

I’m guessing there will be enough initial interest in this that it will take a bunch of jumping through hoops to actually get one in hand. If I can go order one when the mood strikes, I’ll probably buy at least 1.

I’m definitely more competent using trekking poles where I would have had to have used a tripod in the past. However, there are times when a tripod, for me, is the best option. Also the folding stock is very useful for bushwhacking or putting inside a packraft.

The Rokstok Lite will be considerably lighter than the HNT 26, and coupled with the fact that I’ll go 16” bbl next time and be using an OG 6.5, will most likely make it my primary mountain gun for lightweight trips.

Im getting more and more interested in this. I like my regular rokstock but especially for my 223 with that and the rs 1.2 it just seems to bulky for what it is. Might need to move that set up to another tikka and get one of these and a fixed 6 for the little guy.

I hope it will be considerably lighter. The Rokstok came in a lot heavier than I anticipated. The HNT26 w/ a 3rd round Creedmoor mag is 30.5oz. The Rokstok with a factory mag, front and mid arca to make it comparable to the HNT26 is 38.5oz.

So, they need to shave half a pound off of the stock itself to make it weigh the same as the HNT26. That's a lot of material that I'm not sure can come off.

Can you send a pic? I'm working on this same setup and wondered if the RS1.2 might feel too bulky for a trainer.

My daughters peak 44 bastion came in at 22oz out of box , I bet the Rokstock light will be close to that

What does that include? Action screws, recoil lug, bottom plastic, mag, rails, flush cups?

That is out of box: stock, pad, two front studs

So that would be about 25.9oz. But that's without any arca rail, without flush cups, without the ability to fold, and without any cheek height adjustment. For less than 5 more ounces, that's a lot of added functionality in the HNT26.

I forgot there is a rear stud also, i dont use a sling so i remove all studs, there for flush cups are irrelevant to me

the peak 44 bastion, Rokstock light, etc ship basically the same unless you ordered with accessories installed. It’s just a base line weight.

obviously via your post you should buy the $1500 MDT 26 or step up to the Echlon versa ultralight @ 958 plus as it’s only 14oz’s out of the box. Echelon is lightest I’ve seen.

I think the Rokstock light if around 22oz or less with a palm swell stock would be a great price point
