The email they sent out a few weeks ago to those on backorder had this in it: "We are at the point now where customers are requesting refunds for their stocks. Of course this is acceptable and we refund right away, but if you can be patient with us you WILL receive your stock."
I wouldn't suggest placing value in their lead times
Either give them a chance or don't. Only you can make that call.
Yep, I couldn't be more satisfied. I would have waited until Christmas if I had to, no big deal. The factory stock is fine to hunt with. Maybe those who are just so dissatisfied with UM's process should start a support group...hi my name is Bob, UM hurt me here.....
Have my 300 WSM in a RokStok…contemplating getting one for my .223.
But is there that many in the wild for people to be unsatisfied?
With how picky Rokslide members are, if it wasn't as advertised everyone would have heard their opinion
Agreed. They have big flaws in their lead times listed vs reality beyond the rokstok.
I wouldn't call it drastic on the 223 in regards to recoil but there is some and recoil is straight inline. The benefits mentioned by others that have shot it on larger rifles (including myself on a 6.5 Creed, same stock) all still exist. I would say in this case the ergonomic benefits are still there 100%, the recoil related benefits are there but I'd value them in proportion to the recoil available to mitigate (suppressed .223 isn't much to begin with), but for me the other big benefit I anticipate is really about a dozen little benefits stacking up, i.e. when I have a bunch of trigger time on 223 with RokStok muscle memory, and then ideally can go grab a larger caliber rifle that is set up really similarly (scope, action, RokStok) and have same said muscle memory for offhand shooting, getting into weird positions, running the bolt quickly after spotting shot in scope, shooting off pack, etc.
Probably too small of sample size to make that assumption just yet
I had my 223 in it, and prefer it enough that I will get a second rokstok when I can. I switched it over to the 243 at present as it bring more value there.
Me too. Really liking the stock. The only downside I have seen is more interference with earmuffs than a traditionally shaped stock, but still well worth the minor trade-off.
Sounds like a good excuse to sell the wife on why you need a new suppressor
I should soon, my math isn’t great, but I should have one about 90 days after Dec 21, hopefully sooner, I’m an impatient bastard
That sounds a little extreme, but is there a market?
Ya i canceled mine they refunded money with no problems and in timely manner. Bought game warden 2.0 had it in 4 days already shooting with it, i was also worried about having one in time for hunting season and now just got that many more months of practice with the game warden. Maybe when they get every thing in line and some actually in stock one day ill order one but for now ill just watch the show.
Can you spot shots with the 300 WSM?
