Question, is that lug part of the aluminum block, or can it be removed?

The lug cannot be removed. The aluminum block has the lug machined in place.

What did that cost...if you don't mind?

Any photos...please.

I purchased mine through Shooters Discount Inc. for $223.00 plus like $12 shipping I think.

I will take some photos and post this evening.

Gunner75, great job!

I just picked up my second B&C stock that's going on my Tikka 6.5x55. This one is tan w/black web. I bought mine from a shop listed on Gunbroker for $230.00 shipped. My first one is olive w/black web that was put on my stainless 30-06. I really like how well they fit the actions and me. If I buy another Tikka I'll also buy another B&C stock.

How are you guys bedding around the lug? Masking off the front, or are you not bedding them? Thanks.

I don't know but I think this stock was derived from B&C's creation of the Tecomate stock for the Sako A7. Seems very very similar.

You ask for pics, here they are.

I am not going to bed or skim coat until I find it might need it. From what I am seeing I don't believe it will be necessary.

Very nice SW.


It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

tedtf, 6lbs-8oz. with the new stock. I think B&C did a great job on these stocks.

Thanks very much. I assume that is without a scope. Correct?

Yes, that would be without scope. Mine (pic pg #9) weighs 7.5lbs with scope. It shoots tiny little groups consistently, same POI time after time. I just screwed the barreled action into the stock.....no bedding, perfect fit.

Wish they'd (Gunner) would come out with a T3 Varmint stock soon! I'd snatch one up fast.

Come on Dude, I don't think he meant anything by it. Unscrew the two action screws on the botton of the stock, and pull the action away from the stock. It's as easy as that.
