Timber rifle stock expert needed
Many thanks to all the valuable contributions to my original question. But, the solutions proferred are
not quite what I wanted.
Let me explain.
The background was to have a rifle fitting with scope on so that when I mount it, I am immediately looking down the Line of Sight to obviate those time consuming head and neck adjustments, just when the quarry decides to move on and the shooting opportunity is lost!
West London is the only Shooting School that I could find on line that shows on its website the 7 measurements taken for gun fitting. See
http://www.shootingschool.co.uk/shooting-tuition-and-gun-fitting/bespoke-gun-fitting-service.php
They have downloadable forms for side by side and over and under shotguns. I chose the latter and expert Alan Rose completed it, not without a bit of head scratching, as the fitting progressed. The vertical distance between Line of Sight and top of the action was measured on a WLSS Sako with Swarowski scope and this compared with the same measurement of my Tikka 243 T3 with Leupold MkIV scope. Final corrections to the Bend at Heal and to Bend at Comb were made as I explained a LH 308 T3 with Swarowski Z6i would be the new kit.
I then purposely bought a timber stocked LH T3 so that once I had the prescription from WLSS I could measure the ex Tikka factory stock specification and calculate the changes to match with my WLSS prescription. So with the seven measurements provided by WLSS, I now have the following.
Changes in inches: Bend at Heal -1/4, Bend at Comb -1/4, Length of Pull to Heal -1/16, Length of Pull to Mid +3/8, Length of Pull to Toe +5/8, Cast ON at Heal +3/16, Cast ON at Toe +5/16".
So, after that long winded adventure, I am looking for the next expert, a timber stocker preferably located in the Midlands or North West to craft these changes.
Cheers, K
