terryh Posted September 22, 2020 Report Share Posted September 22, 2020 if not the Hoptic have found the Weibad a very good product, vey comfortable, well made: https://wiebad.com/mini-stock-pad/ Not sure if there is a UK distributor though?

Richie88 Posted November 14, 2020 Report Share Posted November 14, 2020 +1 for Hoptic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richiew Posted November 19, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2020 Trying this for the moment- very comfy . Cheapo 15mm pipe lagging Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotch_egg Posted November 20, 2020 Report Share Posted November 20, 2020 Getting consistent cheek weld would be my concern. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ds1 Posted November 24, 2020 Report Share Posted November 24, 2020 Got one ( Hoptics) on the AXMC, nice laser cut design. The 3m sticky seems strong . Will know if it’s durable in a year or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catch-22 Posted November 24, 2020 Report Share Posted November 24, 2020 I used a thick neoprene type mouse mat (is about 3mm thick and has a fine but tough fabric on one side) that I cut to shape and super glued to the cheek riser on my Eliseo chassis. Works a charm, hasn’t freyed or come loose at all, despite handling and poor weather. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ds1 Posted November 24, 2020 Report Share Posted November 24, 2020 Dave, water off a ducks back, last week at the range it was why are my arms so short that I have to have the bipod so close. This was by a mate who’s done everything he can to turn an AX into a belly benchrest rifle including a 6br barrel for it....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotch_egg Posted November 24, 2020 Report Share Posted November 24, 2020 Dave I’m pulling your leg my friend!!! it’s all speculative. what works for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ds1 Posted November 24, 2020 Report Share Posted November 24, 2020 Hi Dave, it’s all good I know you were just joking. Have a look though 20” braked 338 lm ( 285 Eldm’s). Other than me being an idiot and lifting my head - single loading instead of using the mag for some unknown reason the bipod stays put - recoil moves directly back but no bounce. IMG_3173.MOV Sorry was off topic. Guess the hoptics is going to keep my face a bit more comfortable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
