Woohoo! Got a little bit of inlet work to do tonight, nothing an accomplished dremelsmith can’t take care of in a few seconds.

When did you order it?

 

[NSI]

12/27/23 order arrived today. Did not receive shipping confirmation, just a happy surprise at the gate 432 days after ordering.

Weighed 33.5oz w/trinity rail vs 29oz for a July delivered RS w/ arcapic. The trinity rail is excellent in idea and execution, except for the limitations of the minuscule pic lugs (for which I have a workaround - pm me if you're in need).


Fit and finish is questionable, as many have noted. It does not affect function and I do not care. As the price point begins to rise this may become an issue, but it is not at the price I paid. There is what feels like a 2 thou lip between each of the colors on the 3-color cerakote job. I assume this means they were overpainted instead of masked. So long as it proves durable, that too doesn't bother me. This was painted by Amber, who was since let go. My interactions with her were positive. Cody handled my calls thereafter, before being handed off to Alek and finally Cody again.

Wrist seam (CF artifact):



Representative cerakote defects (there are about half a dozen minor ones in addition to the fairly obvious butthole):


None of this is meant to be a complaint. If it was, I would have raised it privately with UM. Just want to give this group an idea of what to expect when both the Fit & Finish as well as the Final Inspection Cerakote quality review are signed off on their red carpet card. This is not a McMillan. Don't expect one, and you'll be happy like me.



This is a CTR inlet with an Atlasworx CTS-AICS BM. The inlet was tight but overcome with a mallet. The ejection port sits precisely flush with the top of the stock, which I hope will not cause ejection issues. I'll report back again after shooting this (308 for now).

What color should I cerakote my barreled action to match this Parker Hale / M40 ish scheme?

Sniper green is always a good color.

I'm still 2 months away from my Tikka 6.5-7PRC ( not improved shoulder) wildcat to be finished. I really like Crocodile, it's metallic like burnt bronze. That's my action color and sponge on the stock with other greens and chocolate colors.

That is pretty rough whether it's going to get beat up in the field or not. I would send it back just on principle.

 

[walk2112]

fairly obvious butthole

At least it's not the sneaky unobvious butthole... those are the worst! (ha)

All joking aside, that's a sweet build, color scheme compliments the spirit/history of the .308 (as long as it wears that barrel anyway)

 

[ChrisAU]

When did you order it?

8/9/24, Rem 700 S/A

Ok so ordered 4 on 2/24/25.. So hopefully 6 months or sooner...

You'll have those faster, but are still a ways out I would think.

I was able to get 6,7,8th out of a hundred and the 95th of a hundred so I hope they ship in the order they were ordered...

 

[Davidson51]

Does anyone know which action inlet would work for a Fierce Fury? ...asking for a friend.

 

[Speaks]

Is the a downside to getting a wider than needed barrel contour. Like running a sporter barrel in an inlet for a heavy one?

Nope, there’s benefits though.

Try searching "dead cats" on this thread

 

[ChrisAU]

I’m putting a #2 contour in my sendero channel. Plenty of room for dead cats, snacks, extra ammo, spare barrels, a change of socks, etc etc

I just received my Rostock a few weeks ago and had similar issues with small imperfection on the stock and cerakote. Nothing that's a big deal but definitely not perfect. Besides that UM has been awesome with any questions/help. I haven't shot the stock yet but the design from UM, Form, and Ryan Avery is top notch, as people say with bows the rokstock is dead in the hands. I have had many other factory rifles and customs with stockys vg1, ag comp alpine hunter, and chalkbranch and without a doubt i like this stock better. FYI my Rostock weighed 30oz

@NSI. Does the wrist seem in the third picture have a little wiggle to it or is that just the angle?

It’s as straight as Ryan’s beard care routine.

I’ll take that as the wrist seam is off center. Thank you.
