RokStok

[WCT3]

Buy a 6.5cm and shoot it for a while, then rebarrel. That's my plan. Bought the 6.5cm a few years ago and have slowly made it how I want, next step is 6cm barrel.

Alternatively, buy a 243 and shoot it for a while then rebarrel to 6cm. That's my plan so I can see 6mm performance on game for myself before spending the money on a prefit.

Also a good idea, especially if you're reloading.

Yea if you want the 6CM I would do that for sure. You can even order the Tikka and have it shipped directly to him and he will rebarrel it and send it to you. At least I am pretty sure I saw him offer that.

I have one of his 6cm barrels and am very happy with it so far. Great guy to deal with.

LS wild does offer actions as well, with free installation of a prefit. Unless you can find a cheaper donor, this seems like the easy button for getting a 6 creed barreled action ready to go.

Good to know regarding installing a barreled action. I would do that and drop it into the rokstok myself but tikka not currently offering a 6cm complicates things. I’m still considering between 6cm and 6.5cm but that’s not the discussion here. If I can get my hands on an action, going to LSwild might be what I do. Thanks yall

Just be aware that through luck of the draw you may get one of the ones that require a little work to fit. I've had two different carbon stocks from stocky's that would not accept a factory Tikka without some work. One of those was a rokstok. It was also the one that required the most work.

Today's episode mentioned the Rokstok Lite will have "love handles" and that these will be added to the moulds for the Rokstok standard in time ... any idea when that will be @Unknown Munitions ?

What are “love handles” on a stock?

It’s a small strip of textured area on each side of the butt stock down near the toe line. They mentioned it added grip/control when wearing gloves or in cold weather.

is there a rokslide discount or know if they ever go on sale?

They had a 10% Black Friday I believe.

They’ll certainly go down in price when anyone else with a 3D printer knocks them off.

I got most of mine for black friday. They do cost a bunch for what they are.

Yes. Let me rephrase. I had significantly more feeding issues in a 223 bravo with aics magazines than I ever have with the factory bottom metal and plastic 223 magazines.

Curious, did you ever solve this problem? KRG’s solution was loosen the buttstock, trigger guard and forearm from chassis and pushed together to remove slack. It did reduce slack, but didn’t solve the problem. MDTs solution was sort of like… we don’t really have issues. Seems to me the issue is mag latch needs to be a tiny bit higher to pull the back of the mag up and KRG should offer to switch out a taller mag latch, or make it adjustable. But maybe I’m expecting too much.

The solution is purpose built 223 mags, not hack job inserts. If I used a 223 CTR, I would get Waters mags for it. I haven’t seen a bunch of them used, but what I have was good and they will have the best chance to work.

Cool, I’m not familiar with Waters but I’ll get that way. Thanks Form.

If you get some, please share how they work.

Form, sorry I started looking at the Waters site and came back to this. I should have read deeper, as I was doing a search on AICS mags and Bravo, but looks like the comment I replied to was re: Tikka. I should clarify I have a lowly R700 not Tikka in .223. Are you thinking the Waters still may be the answer for a R700/Bravo/.223? Thanks.
