Those T3X owners here on the forum, have you changed out your factory plastic Tupperware stock for a better stock ??
What stocks do you recommend? I’m looking to change out one on a T3X 308 …..

Don't know how many of those he still has, as I know he sold one a while back saying he didn't like the ergo's of the stock or Tikka or something. Still don't know exactly.. Is there a reason you want to change your factory stock out?
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

Why are you wanting to go to an aftermarket stock?

McMillan Sako Hunter.. Better grip, longer and palm swell, and the comb is more comfortable, then their Classic model.

Although it is heavier, even EDGE filled. I changed out the Tikka stocks since they were short as hell for me and just didn't feel great. So I changed them out. I have no bones what so ever with Tikka. One of the easiest rifles a fella can buy. I am just a Model 70 guy and enjoy them more, so I sent the Tikka's down the road. I do like my CTR and get along fine with it, but they are play guns mostly for me.

Mesa Precision Attitude on one T3; AG Composities Privateer on another. Actually prefer the AG stock, but it took 17 weeks to get, whereas the Mesa was on my doorstep in about 6 weeks.
I never thought I'd grow up to be a grumpy old man, but I did, and I'm killin' it.

I've been extremely happy with the Wildcat UL on my T3x SL. Very light, stiff and tough. Slightly higher comb than the factory stock also. Not sure if they're available in the US again or not, but a great LW, inexpensive DIY option, if they are. Got my rifle under 5.5 pounds, with the help of some Ti parts.

I've seen more well-shot game lost with TSXs than any other premium bullet.

Those are so bulky and heavy For some I suppose. For actually shooting and killing scheit, they work well. A 9.5lb rifle (ready to hunt) is not what I would consider "heavy" Better ergos, recoil control, aics mags. Yes please. Honestly the factory stock with the vertical grip module is good.
