Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Modded (slimmed) Tikka T3 stock

Gone is the palm swell and most of the 'ridges" and all the "checkering". Weight as pictured is 27.2 oz but do not have a before weight if someone could provide (with the lug, studs, and pad) it would be cool. Duracoat flat Tactical Black with black webbing for texture and to break up surface, and then red webbing, topped with Cerakote matte clear (air cure). Learned a couple things but don't see any issues with the modification, no loss of integrity or stiffness etc etc... This is from a SS 25-06.

Just weighed two different ones 28.55 and 28.95 with pad and lug

Looks good by the way!

Camera is busting my chops but here's some more. BTW: can't readily get rid of that longitudinal ridgeline behind the grip.

Thanks Jerrad! Didn't figure it lost much weight - after the coatings...

Nice one man! You ever do a splatter effect instead of webbing?

Looks good

Hey guys that's my stock, and I can't wait to get it on my rifle.

Thank you swag!

Been experimenting with various textures... Below is a sorta speckled one. Will be trying out more variations and really do appreciate any feedback received.


Thanks!
