Tikka 595 stock options

[r judd]

Have a tikka 595 with a bartlein no4 profile barrel. Wanting to know what synthetic stock options i have.
Seen the grs laminate offering but the barrel wont fit in the channel.
Cheers

Have you emailed the importers or GRS? If not an option would you consider sanding out the barrel channel yourself?

I havent contacted GRS, i sanded out the original synthetic stock to accomodate the barrel so dont have an issue doing that.
I already have a beserk on another rifle so would be nice to keep the same style if possible.
Cheers

I totally understand any reticence on sanding out or altering a new stock. I have done a few myself (usually Boyds because I'm tight!) but done sparingly, a bit at a time and resealing the wood afterwards is a good technique.
