What type of blade did you use to cut the carbon stock? Anything special?
Just a 14” miter saw blade with fine teeth. I think any blade would work good, just make sure it’s newish, and go slow. The painters tape over where you will be cutting will keep it from chipping.

Here is my rifle I built with the stock. I hunted with is this season and was very happy with it, with the excpetion that some of the finish did chip off and expose the carbon. I shot Norma Bondstrike 180 Ammunition I bought for the brass and it was very accurate but will be throating it long and handloading 190 LRX going forward. I found the front of the stock to be very rigid and solid all the way through and had no problem drilling holes to install the ARCA plate or flush cup. There is no foam in the fore end that I found.

I'm still on the fence on if I should bed it. It shoots 3/4MOA as is.

I forgot to add that I changed out the recoil pad to give better absorption and increase length of pull to 13.75 by adding the Limbsaver Airtech #10800. It fits pretty much perfectly on the stock.

Has anyone put an Unknown Munitions rail on their stock? I'm curious if it fits well.

Thanks for this. I ordered one. I already have a 1/2” spacer in mine and it’s still not quite enough LOP. If I go with the 1/2” spacer and add the .25” with a better recoil pad I think I’ll be in business.

You can use coupon code 30rokslide to take 30% off
With your current "Year End Clearance Sale" being advertised on your site (ie, 30% off the tikka VG), are there any additional/stackable promos available that you are offering to your Rokslide customers?

You can stack free shipping with coupon code GOFREE2
Jessica,
I'm trying to buy a prefit barrel. Added to the cart, it properly shows the 20% discount. But, when i add the free shipping code, the 20% discount disappears. Is there a secret to making the stack work?
Thanks!
