Stocky’s Hunter VG Tikka stock

[Njadams13]

I finally got my rifle back from the gunsmith and had time to put the stock on. The bottom metal inlet took quite a bit of work to get both the stock and lumley bottom metal to sit properly. I also noticed that the bottom metal does not sit flush with the stock. Other photos of bottom metal from this thread also appear to not sit flush.

I got the sporter contour barrel channel and it’s a tight fit. I checked and it’s free floated all the way to the receiver. Overall I think it looks pretty good and the final weight, as pictured is, 8.4lbs.

What is everyone torquing their action screws to? I have them at 45 lbs currently.

I have mine at 65 inch pounds.
