Stocky’s Hunter VG Tikka stock

[HighUintas]

@Stockys is the rokslide30 code still good? Or do we need to call to use it? I see the VG is discounted already in the shopping cart, can the rokslide30 code be stacked on that?

It can’t be stacked unfortunately. If you call or email they have honored it in the past. Kim always gets right back to me on emails

Got the rifle out for some practice at my hunting spot in the fall. Loving the stock, rifle shoots excellent!

Going to be adding onto the trigger reach on my VG soon. What’s everyone’s preferred way to add texture?

marine tex all the way

Thanks. I haven’t seen any black marine Tex, and I will be wanting to paint it black. Any type of black coat works or should I use something specific for the marine tex

The “grey” marine Tex is black. I just did my stockys carbon with it and it turned out perfect. I sponged the whole stock with black krylon after I epoxied the grips. It’s actually been durable and looks great.

This is what I use as it is a lot lighter than marine tex or other epoxy putties. It molds and sands very well.

That stuff seems to have went up in cost. I think it used to be $30 for the trial size

Do you reinforce it?

I started a muzzy with it but need to finish it next month before a hunt next year.

No, I just scuff up the grip area really good and then mold it on, let it cure, sand it to the contour I desire and then paint it.

How’s much are you building up? 1/2” or more?

For mine I am doing a bit over 1/2”. On my wife’s gun, I went almost 3/4” as she has much smaller hands.

That’s helpful. Thanks!

Are you guys bedding these stocks? While not a VG, I have a Stockys carbon hunter for a Tikka build on my workbench, wondering if I should bed the recoil lug only, bed the action too, install pillars too?

Curious what most guys have done or recommend.
