The CTR bottom metal for my RokStok fit very well, dimensionally perfect w/ the minor exception of requiring one thick Red Snake tactical shim at the rear screw to get the latch to latch with my magazines. There’s enough difference between magazines in the latch hole location that I wouldn’t call that a knock on the inlet though.
The issue I had, which was easy enough to rectify at home with a little layout and a dremel, was the ‘bumps’ near the bottom of the action that prevented the magazine from seating all the way. I showed/told Stockys about this, and they promptly apologized and said they are going to adjust the inlet programming to make sure those are gone/ the issue fixed going forward. Should ready to rock and roll now.

Any insite on what Stockys barrel profile works best the CTR? They have the option of sporter, m24, and alpine barrel channels

M24 is safe with plenty of clearance, don’t know about the alpine but I believe that contour is slightly smaller than CTR toward the muzzle half of barrel so would likely require sanding to provide clearance.
I checked mine, a M24/Proof sendero cut w/CTR barrel and has 7/8 of a dead cat for clearance all around which is just right to me

Happen to have a picture you can share, with a banana for scale? Not familiar with a dead cats worth of clearance.

No bananas or cats for reference, but I think CTR barrels finish at 0.83” dia. at the muzzle/shoulder.
