Might be here someplace, but how long (from front action screw forward) is the RSL?

Thank you sir. Didn’t realize that had already been postedMight be here someplace, but how long (from front action screw forward) is the RSL?

@Unknown Munitions is it not physically possible to inlet an r700 LA in the Lite? My 6UM is on a LA Vesper
@Stockys any insight?We have not tried yet, @Stockys could better answer at this point.
The recoil lug placement on the 700 long action is at the taper point of the scalloped forend so there isn't enough material there to adequately support the LA.@Stockys any insight?
...and while we're at it:
Is it possible to inlet for a Sako 90 on the Tikka pattern stocks?
Probably a little early to sell off current furniture just yet.To any of you guys chasing ounces with the rokstock lite, I will gladly buy your heavy rokstocks. Just let me know. Glad to help.

I will for sure list 1 or 2 eventually. Not sure exactly where in my lineup cut off will be though. Im positive my 223 will be in a lite and my 6.5 prc will be in a regular.
My RokStok Lite is ~15% heavier than the product description on UM’s website. I’m not terribly concerned about an extra 3-4 ounces but I am annoyed with UM listing 23 ounces as the starting weight when that is not the reality.My regular rokstoks are definitely heavier than advertised as well

Really just wish UM would just update the product description. Expect 26-27 ounces for your starting build weights based on mine and my buddies (both picked up at Hunt Expo).
Weight: I am told there were some variances in weight for the few stocks we brought to the show. The first 3 that were made while I was at Stockys were 24 ounces with butt pad. I have asked Jessica Brown not to send any Lites that were more than 23 ounces without pad. Our grind to fit pad weighs less than 2 ounces before install. So all in all, the weight should be 24-25 ounces across the board. All posted weights are without a rail.
Thank you all for your support!

Which probably means a lot more rejected stocks and lower likelihood of delivering within 120 days.They are setting some limits.
That certainly could be true. I’ll take the glass is half full approach and think that Stocky’s knows there is a standard/expectation that was already achieved, and will impress upon their employees to achieve it so their time and money isn’t wasted throwing away stocks.Which probably means a lot more rejected stocks and lower likelihood of delivering within 120 days.
For those who care about such things, it looks “better”Other than the weight, what are the real advantages over the regular rokstock? My regular rokstock is 31oz with a spartan pic rail, leather cheek pad, two sling swivel studs and a sendero contour barrel channel. Seems pretty comparative when it comes to weight
It does trade a bit of pure shooting performance for size and weight over the ROKStok. However, it still does way better than any other sporter stock.
It’s like a mini Tikka Master Sporter, and it behaves like one.
This is about as lite as I can go and still spot 75% of my shots with a 6UM and the RS lite in field shooting positions. Put it in a Rokstok and I'm spotting 90%+. Put it back, into a Tikka Factory stock and I'm less than 30%
