The knock on the Rokstok these handles provide bothered me at first but I'm over it. I don't notice it anymore.

It's way better than the factory knob. Not that the factory knob is bad tho.

Does anyone notice accidental bolt lift with these UM Tikka bolt handles? I purchased a Sterk last year and have experienced (some) issues with the bolt lifting.

That is specifically what it was designed to stop. It is still possible of course, but is way less likely.

Ordered up a set of the "short ball" to see how it feels. I figure if I don't like it, should be able to get rid of it easy on RS.

This happens with my desert tech SRS A2 that comes factory with a big ball on the bolt. It gets pushed just slightly out of battery which drops the hammer on dead space in chamber but with tikka the bolt stays closed when the safety is on so I carry that way with empty chamber and mag in.
