Because you're all whiny and keep asking. Especially you, @Ryan Avery.

YAAAY!

I like highs but I think I have a short neck so I end up further back on the shark fin than many and I also like a more upright head and light cheek pressure. Also works for playing nice with muffs. I’m sure meds would be fine too.

In simple terms, the height of the ring you need depends on where your face is on the comb. High rings worked well for me with the scope mounted more rearward. Low rings work well for me with the scope mounted more forward. With the RS, it's not just a vertical consideration for the height, horizontal factor's in as well.

Is there a usual preferred um height for the rs1.2 with a rokstok?

Thinking about the leather pad too. From searching it seems like … mediums?

I use lows, mediums work well for lots of folks too.

I’ve used medium and low. Prefer the lows for me… but it’s cutting it close on my 3B barrel with the Aadmount caps. The Tenebraex covers would not work for me… but likely would on a factory barrel

Got my 700 long action, I like it better than expected.
The action dropped right in, the bottom metal needed some very minor fitting. I also used a washer because the front action screw was a touch long.

First shots today went well. First impact was the low one and surely some mechanical stress. The next 5 were the group. I was also shooting pretty quick because it was getting dark.

I'll get better pictures of the relief needed for the Hawkins Hunter bottom metal, but I just have the one. Some relief needed on the front portion of the inlet near the front action screw and then of course for the magazine release adjustment.

Will check the ability to spot shots in the next couple days. I have an 8" pplate at 380 that I shoot all the time. I can't spot impacts on it currently, but I know exactly how far the plate swings back when I do get back on target so that will be a good comparison because I shoot that target a lot.
