Rokstok review thread

[atmat]

The plastic stock I am referring to is the factory model.

Apologies, I misread!

Like I said, though, I would reach out to UM if you can’t get it to shoot. That’s a massive bummer.

I order one and don’t recall the inlet size. The other I picked up used on the forum. I now have 5 Tikkas, which I never thought I would as I don’t find the action attractive. Then after reading here over the past few years I picked up a used 223. It cycled better than my 700 actions so I looked for deals on them. I am using a new 223 1:8 16” threaded 1/2 model Trigger adjusted to 2 lbs.
SWFA 6x. Med UM rings and stance 7 or 9
Pic is in in factory stock. Very grip and matching 11 degree negative comb.

Same set up in 2 different RS had both shooting 2.7”
It’s a work in progress and I plan on using this action in the 6 different Tikka stocks I have available to me to see what I like.

My buddy just shipped his back due to recoil lug issues causing the action to rock/pivot.

However this was one of the earlier manufactured rokstocks that needed the recoil lug changed. He just recently got a Tikka action to put in the stock and discovered the problem. I thought the newer ones had remedied this issue.

I have 3 RS's. All Tikka. I like them. I had one crack at the handle, and UM swapped it out ASAP (I think I had it within 5 days, and that was over a weekend and because I had them put a LOP spacer in. Just so happened mine was std carbon and no rail, and they had one in stock. Only other issues I have had are the OEM bottom metal fitting a bit weird and having to "sand" the action bolts because they penetrate too far. Other than that, happy with them.

Looks like a few months ago there were people swapping rings heights for better fittment. Should I just go ahead and get some rings on back order or wait? Tikka with UM rings. I need to measure what height I got, order isn’t showing up in my history but pretty sure I have lows.

I can shoot perfectly fine with lows, mediums, and highs. Getting the ring height “just so” is 100% blown out of proportion here

I’d buy mediums and lows and see which you prefer then sell the other set. Remember to test them from how you’ll hunt and not just on a table setting up your scope

Might have too. Just don’t want to piss away more money with the intent on selling a set of rings if I don’t need them. Also don’t want to wait then end up waiting multiple more weeks or months waiting for the height I need to become available.

Anyone in SE Idaho with a Rok Stock and an SWFA or Maven scope they’d let a guy get behind at the range?

If you find you need them, I am pretty sure I still have two sets of mediums that I bought before discovering I like lows better. Might be able to work out a trade or sale.

I'm in the Star Valley (Etna), probably not far from you. Have all the goodies in the shop here and a range next door.
