What’s the cheek raiser fitted to this rifle?

 

[Thoburns]

Not fitted it's standard tikka on this model and fixed not adjustable

Screen shot from the Tikka website, shows the rifle better than my photos

I've a Sako 85 Finnlight and I've been looking at raisers. I've got the mesh with foam insert but I find it moves about and is pretty pants really. I'm mulling a Kalix but tbh I don't need adjustable I simply want a fixed raise - yours looked just the thing! I wonder if anybody does fixed/fitted raisers??

The reason they have to be adjustable to have full height is that you then need to drop them to remove the bolt. The ergonomics dictate.

Hi. Yes I get that for full height. But I’m after maybe an inch or 1.5 tops elevation, and it doesn’t need to extend to the very front of the comb. That should be possible without obstructing the bolt. There are some raisers that use Velcro on their insides - I haven’t tried one but it sounds flimsy. I’d be after a solid raiser that you just glue on to the top. It seems odd to me that no one makes that sort of thing?

Or just buy a Tikka Varmint .222 with the stock raiser already fitted at the factory

Looks a lovely set up! Sadly I don’t have a 222 slot to play with. Good luck with finding it a new home though.

 

[Thoburns]

Also have approx 1000 small rifle primers to go with the package.

 

[Thoburns]

Have an almost full tub of N130 to add to the package.

Pm replied - 20" Barrel

For the guys that don't reload but interested may split the package to "rifle, moderator and scope" then would move everything else separately.

Round count gone up 5 to 71 mounted the kahles scope and zeroed ready to go.
