RokStok

[Hill Difficulty]

Here's a little 700 insight since posting @ #6574. Hoping other 700 buyers had better fitting.

Since receiving the stock I have noticed and remedied the following:

• tang inlet too short - fix: cut with a Dremel
• height at front action screw way too low - fix: bed a .72" front aluminum pillar to raise receiver height
• entire barrel in front of lug laid in the barrel channel - fix: pillar and epoxy bed around rear tang + area between mag well and recoil lug
• back of recoil lug did not seat in lug well (see 1/32" space) - fix: epoxy bedding

Some photos












Feedback + comments:

• Very pleased with the stock now that all the inletting issues are resolved - it's an excellent stock so big thanks to everyone involved with bringing this together
• Stock satisfies my interest in a Clymer (Poor Man's Clymer?), $500ish is the right price considering the inletting errors/time and trouble required to remedy
• FWIW, would pay more if a true drop-in that could be used interchangeably with other barreled actions
• Hoping UM and Stockys get the CS (tell the truth, always) and production bugs worked out before producing more 700 inlets
• A compact version with 4" less fore-end length would be cool, but that's personal preference

Will order a Rostok 700 SA as soon as they can be ordered.

Note: If anyone has a 700 SA with inlet issues that are too prohibitive, let me know and I might buy.

Thanks for the detailed write up, hoping my 700 Rokstok ships soon and I don't have those issues! I can do them myself, but if you considered selling your services I might listen as well lol

If I have that issue with mine I am sending my barreled action to UM to fix it

Hoping you get a good one!

On bedding, I've done a bunch... However, bedding someone else's stock before cure starts can be too stressful - like disabling a bomb

I don't have a gunwerks bipod. And I don't have torque specs for a bipod I don't have. A max torque spec would be provided for the fastener by gunwerks I would assume. I have no idea how it adjusts, and have no idea what size screw adjusts it.

I've never even held one of these bipods. What I do have, are multiple customers saying they work with the picatinny clamp being tight enough. And that's all the info I have.

So then when you said:

They work fine

What you really meant was that some customers say they work fine while others say they don’t. But that you don’t actually know because you’ve never tried.

I’m not knocking you here. But you were dismissive of several folks who said they don’t work when you’re never tried and are operating from hear say in the opposite direction.

As one of my favorite comedians once said...

I can get a good look at a T-bone by sticking my head up a bull's ass, but I'd rather take a butcher's word for it.

Today has been a day of good news. My tikka black carbon camo (original gold option) is being shipped, my rifle build with a black carbon camo (originally green) is finished, and I am next in line for a late season AZ elk tag. Thank you whoever turned yours in.
