Yep. I do x2.
Rock solid in my rokstok.
You need to remove some material from the inlet to get it to fit.

After dremel work, I bedded the bottom metal with epoxy.

i liked it enough that I bought a second.
It has held up very well feeding steel aics mags. Some finish wear, but holding up as well as anything would be expected.

Trouble free zeroing. It only took 0.3 mil up going from factory to Rokstok. I haven't shot in a while as I'm archery focused near term, so there could be form inconsistency there.

I couldn't use my ear muffs with the new stock. I had to squeeze in those orange ear plugs. Is this common? Maybe I have form issue with cheek weld? Howard Leight low-profiles muffs, so they're pretty small. I would get interference with factory stock as well but I always managed to make it work. Using Talley lows currently.

Eager to shoot field positions.

How did the Talley low rings work with the RokStock on field positions?

Anyone else use the Tally rings on tikka with the RokStock? I'm looking for others experience

Talleys are not very solid or reliable in comparison to other current options. I'd 100 % take a weight penalty and go with sports match or UM rings

No problems on a 223.

@Unknown Munitions, any chance you can provide an update on #216513? I know, I’m impatient

Anyone in western Oregon have a Rokstock? I’d like to meet up and shoot one before I order one

Interesting. You got a link to info about the Talleys failing?

I've not broke a set and still have them on my 708 model 7 and my wife has them on her 250AI. I have stopped using them after all the pictures of cracked rings started showing up a few years back. Kinda like the Scythe blowing up thing. I've not had issues with mine but too many others have for me to keep buying them.

Not a single link but there were quite a few reports here of them breaking a couple years ago. The three sets I've had weren't actually round and they didn't hold zero as well as the sportsmatch

Thank you for the info I'll pass on the Talleys

Anybody running a RokStock with the Unknown Munitions Tikka Rings? What heights work well across various field shooting positions?

I have a RS with UM rings. I had to add spacers for LOP. Maven 1.2. I tried Med and ended up going with Highs.

I plan later this week to take measurements between the two RS I own. Both with Mavens, both extended LOP only difference is UM rings vs Pic rail.

I’ve had difficulty getting behind the RS easily. Still deciding if it is for me. I can state 100% it is the best stock I own for staying on target after the shot.

 

[Speaks]

I tried lows and mediums, prefer lows, most seem to prefer mediums. I shoot the rokstock with either 1 or 2 spacers in it.

I use the lows with an SWFA 6x and a RokStok. I haven’t had any issues with any shooting positions.
