dorg Posted March 24, 2013 Report Share Posted March 24, 2013 Have a look at the pics below, see what you think. This is a thumb up style to help with any torque action upon firing, it has a flat section on the front of the forend to take a rail for the bipod. We have removed material from the butt to reduce weight and the overall length is 38 inches. This stock weighs in at 1.7kgs including the buttpad. Also this is a new laminate colour too.

The Gun Pimp Posted March 24, 2013 Report Share Posted March 24, 2013 I like the colour and I like the shape and length of the stock - and weight - or lack of it! Great F/TR stock - possibly the best IMHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brillo Posted March 25, 2013 Report Share Posted March 25, 2013 Oh what a beauty. Love that colour. Could it be made with adjustable cheek-piece and butt? The stock 'as is' is great when I shoot from a home made bench, but when I shoot prone I need to be able to both raise the cheek to avoid neck pain (oh the joys of reaching 60+) and butt to fit into my shoulder.

With a rested rifle (both ends) as in F Class or benchrest, an adjustable butt isn't required. Try it - you could have the trigger anywhere over a about an 18 inch length! An adjustable cheek-piece might be good to locate head position for scope acquisition but I wouldn't be resting my head on it! Plus - they add weight and cost. Put the weight where it does the best job - in the barrel! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I should stick to bench rest only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I meant was the ability to move the butt upwards by a couple of inches, which is something I can do on my Doplhin modular stock and my Sako TRG-22. What happens with me in the prone position, no matter how I try to avoid it, is the butt sits low in my shoulder and this makes it difficult to control recoil. Back in my .22 prone shooting days my Anschutz rifle had an adjustable butt hook but you don't see them on F Class rifles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
