A Surgeon with Manners

[Jagged77]

Just wanted to share and say a big thank you to Manners stocks for supplying me with this fantastic MCS-LRH stock. I’ve had many Manners stocks over the years but this one is superb, fully featured and weighing in at just over 1kg. The finish is Elite Tac Camo - Scorched Earth.

This is my main stalking rifle in .308 shooting bug hole groups with Barnes 130gr TTSX. Very much looking forward to my next outing.

Looks wonderful, I'm a little envious.

Looks great

That’s lovely! What’s the barrel length and overall weight please, if you don’t mind me asking?

Thank you! 18” barrel and it weighs in at just under 6kgs

Very nice, but if it's anything like my Tikka Super Varmint .308 it's a bit cracky with the SL5i on the front

Perfect, thanks for the info!

I saw a surgeon last week. He didn't look as pretty as yours and had a scalpel and saw with him. He did have good manners

Yeah I’ll take my Surgeon over yours I think! Hope you’re on the mend

Nice looking bit of kit

All you need is a decent Zeiss scope and you’re good to go there!

It does crack a bit but just enough to take the sting out. Love it for stalking, brilliant little mod.

Alas, I’ve no Zeiss scopes! I do have a Bushnell Elite for it though, comes off and on with no change to zero.

Sadly, no Tikka inlets

I’m sure they released a similar model to fit the T3 around Christmas time. This one:

I reckon a SL7i would take the sting out of it.

I reckon a SL7i would take the sting out of it.

I eventually swapped the SL5i for a SL7i and the difference is really noticeable, but does make the gun much more front heavy.

 

[308rws]

I found the same. Difference between losing and keeping your sight picture in my experience.
