Hi,

I have made a new stock for my IOF 30-06 with the old stock the line of sight (peep) was not that good. So I have to raise cheek for that and have put the Rail for the Hand stop and Bipod on the front stock. The front stock is the same not changed.

Pics:

Denzil, where is the handstop? Or are you using the bipod as the handstop? Also I am assuming you would be participating in the free rifle prone event, so why not invest in a butt hook instead of using a recoil pad?

Cheers!

Denzil,

You seem to have used the IOF stock as a template with the addition of a higher comb.The excessive drop seems to have been carried over to the new butt stock.It is going to exaggerate recoil.

Hi Abhijeet,

I am using the Hand Stop. I have not taken the pics with it. Yes I am taking part in free rifle prone event and I am using recoil pad instead of butt Hook to reduce the recoil and these butt hook are good with Alu stock.
