Tikka build with MDT HNT 26

[asieb]

thinking about doing a tikka build on the MDT HNT 26 stock. Has anyone done one and if so, how did it turn out?

As expected, freaking sick.

I've got to handle @B_Reynolds_AK and it is very nice. If I wanted a folding stock, that would be how I would do it.

Have you ever shot chassis before? If not, I would suggest doing that first. I had never and found it creates a tuning fork sensation. Too be honest, I wouldn't have gone the chassis road if I had tried it first myself as I dont like that sensation. Might not be as bad with a smaller caliber, but mine was 7 prc. I did a few things to vastly lessen it, like different recoil pad and vertical adjustment, negative comb. Another thought is the folder should go over the bolt side so it's more compact foot print on a pack.

If I do it, it’s probably going to be a 6creedmoor so it won’t be much recoil.

Not currently on my phone, but if you search HNT 26 and my handle on here, you’ll see pics posted.

I did it. Lots to love: lightweight, folding stock, integral arca rail.
I did not like the feel, pistol grip stock, LOP or how it recoiled.

I actually went back to a KRG Bravo. Might do another later, but for now I wasn't in love with it.
