RokStok

3/11 order showed up yesterday, unannounced. Big surprise, I was not expecting it until maybe November.

No rail, single color, no special favors offered. No idea why mine shipped when it did but I'm not complaining.

TO84 rings with a 3-12 LRHS feels like it's going to work great still. I may move it back a bit, or add a LOP spacer, going to have to shoot it to decide. It's right on the edge right now of feeling a little short on LOP and eye relief.

They go where they need to go to get proper eye relief without straining your neck or having to put yourself in a weird position
Yeah but the eye relief on the RS1.2 is huge. My scopes maxed forward and i still feel it should be further forward
 
Man those scopes are way far back. I’m the exact opposite and mount them as far forward as I can get them. No right or wrong just based on body type I presume?

......

Scope placement is something to consider on the Rokstok. I didn't consider it until I switched a barreled action to it.

The Rokstok required me to mount the scope more forward than usual so I can get low enough to align with it. Using UM low's, I have to really work to get my head forward so I can get low enough, and I'm still overdoing it with my cheekweld. Moving the scope back any more leads to a more rearward cheekweld...that with the higher comb at that point makes it very tough for me to use, especially offhand. It's just a build/body type issue and I need to change to at least medium rings.

My Rokstock w SWFA is good at normal length, the one w Maven will get LOP extension after seasons are over.

Could you go to medium rings maybe?

When it feels like it should be further forward is that a good thing or does it feel like you are in the wrong position of what the "ideal" position is? I'm thinking about ordering and am curious about that.
