Stocky’s Hunter VG Tikka stock

You can also get risers from Victor Company.

Is it common to need a riser on these stocks? One of the main reasons I ordered was because I thought it was going to help with the eye alignment

I put just a small (less than a quarter inch thick) piece of sticky foam on one and it was perfect. No real cheek riser needed.

Question for all you fellas out there with much more gunsmithing knowledge than I. Recently purchased this stock and it came without a recoil lug, so I picked up from Oregon Mountain Rifle.. this thing is snug and I’ve been wailing on it for about half hour now to get it seated. Stockys site says spec is .07” - .09”, but I have no way to measure that accurately. Is this lug too proud?

If it is seated all the way down then it should be good. If you set your barreled action down and torque it down, it should make marks on the flat area behind the recoil lug. If it doesn’t then it isn’t in deep enough. But, I just bedded mine and it fits way better. I would just do that, personally..

Can’t tell if it’s seated all the way honestly, had to use a small mallet to get it down. Everything seemed to torque down fine, guess I’ll see how it shoots.

Depends on what people like. I was just replying to an earlier thread to let folks know about another riser option (which is great on standard T3X stocks, and I toyed with putting on a carbon stock that is similar to the Stockys VG).

I have one on a Bergara with a 40mm objective scope in low rings. No need for a riser. Comb is higher than factory Tikka or Bergara sporter stocks.

thanks that’s probably close to what I have with a tikka with sports match mids and a 42mm
