Rokstok Lite

[atmat]

It sounds like I’ll need to go for a 14.75”+ LOP with the Rokstok lite so wondering if the 1” pad is worth it as part of the equation. Why didn’t they offer a 1” pad standard j/w

How are y’all doing these long LOPs without minting your scopes super far back?

Haha not sure but I am 6”2 with long arms and neck and it’s not been a problem albeit no experience with a Rokstok. Form has stated short women and children up to 6”6 monsters have shot his 14.75” Rokstok without issue, however that’s possible, I’m not sure.

I’m 6’ with lanky arms. But I think I have a short neck. Once I get above 14” it feels like I’m craning forward unless I bring the scope way back.

That might be it. I think you’re fine though, the long neck is a pain, I find stock fitment and comfortability shooting difficult, need high rings etc. That and I have no formal training or taken any courses but would love to instead of just reading and YouTube.

For me, spotting shots from a 7 pound 15 ounce 6.5 Creedmoor shooting 140-class bullets requires intense concentration and perfect form.

Yea I think 6.5 cm is where I like a little more weight like in the 8.5 range. Lighter on the 6 shooting 103s works great. My 6.5s will stay in regular rokstocks I think.

It could just be unique individual anatomy kinda thing? For example, here’s selfie that might explain my interest in long LOP:

Ignore me, I’m an idiot. Got looking super close on my pad and sure enough, it is screwed on. The pad folds back over and you honestly can’t even tell..

Ha! I was hoping these weren't just old pads that they glued on because I didn't have a screw driver to actually check.

LOP and ring height is super personal. I am 6'2 with someone disproportionately long arms and neck. My rokstocks are set at 14 and 14.25 and I like low rings. I can easily go longer LOP prone or seated but it throws off my offhand shooting. Im not really sure why as I tend to like 15 or 15.25 in my upland bird guns. I think I also prefer a much stronger cheek weld than is popular, I think that also gets back to my extensive wing shooting experience and how much of my early shooting was iron sights on lever guns (vs a more heads up AR platfrom).

Now that the dust has settled a bit. Does anyone know if these are in already built, going into production, or any kind of timeline? Intel of any kind?
Already thinking of spring bear season.
