The muzzle blast is horrible on most 16” barrels without a can. Before I suppressed my AR, it was a literal headache to shoot.

Even for a bolt gun?

Muzzle blast from short barreled bolt guns (unsuppressed) is something I hate. The physical punch of recoil bothers me much less than muzzle blast.

Yes. We have an old Persian cavalry carbine in 8mm Mauser and it’s just miserable to shoot. Great brush gun though. Getting the blast even four inches further away makes a huge difference to me.

What about 223 though, that one can't be that bad in 16' bolt can it?

Yes. It can be.

Well at least my wife will know I’m not trying to sneak in a new rifle, it says right on the box “Not a Firearm”. Got to sneak away from work early now!

Had one come thru Fedex here in Madison for some reason on its way to Seattle. I almost wrote on the box some snarky message from a fellow Rokslider but thought against it.

Here’s what was in the box. A July drop no rail in sponge #5. #3 barrel inlet is perfect for a factory Tikka Lite contour (mine is an IBI mountain lite contour which is very similar). Weighs 31.2 oz which is actually lighter then the factory stock with a vertical grip, a beaver tail forend and a Limbsaver pad.

The first of the two Rokstoks I ordered on 5/19 arrived today. To their credit, UM emailed me to confirm specs on 8/20, but I didn’t see it and there was a delay until they called me to check. Still arrived in about 120 days so I’m content.

Didn’t get any updates or shipping info from UM after I confirmed the specs a few weeks ago. The stock just arrived without warning, which I think is the norm. I don’t have fedex alerts set up but I know that would have helped.

Stock looks great to me. Just plain OD Green sponge to keep it simple. It will be a 16.5” 243, which I should get back from the smith next week.

Overall fit and finish is very good. Only defect I see is the mating of the spacers to the stock is not flush and a small amount of epoxy is visible. That said, it won’t affect function or cause any issues and I doubt I could do any better. I’m perfectly happy with the stock.

The recessed trinity rail looks great and is so clean for all the function it offers. Not sure how much I’ll use it but nice to have options.

Hopefully my second Rokstok will arrive soon, I’m surprised they didn’t ship together but I’m sure UM has their reasons.

As a follow up to this, today they shipped out the second stock. I got the email with the finalized order and tracking info for both stocks. I think having 2 stocks on the same order that shipped separately explains the lack of email or tracking info. I’m betting if I’d just ordered one I would have gotten tracking info the day it shipped.

Stoked to get the second one and put them both to use!
