    Fitted my new prototype carbonfiber stock

    Just finished fitting the new ultralight weight carbonfibre stock to my Tikka T3 6.5x284
    Stock weight 604gms with a alloy v-bock (the v-block eliminates any need to bed the action, any T3 action), the raised comb height gives great scope to eye alignment on the VX6.
    The moulded in barrel channel saves weight and adds regidity for a stiffer forend.

    nice work. I'm guessing you've now got a mold for vaccum forming?

    Any chance of using a Carbon / KEVLAR Hybrid Fabric would give the strength plus impact resistance. (though it is a prick to trim)
    Carbon twill won't take too many hits

    Yes have looked at the Carbon/Kevlar hybrid but wanted to get the basic stock sorted first, I've found kevlar a real bitch to work with. But will look at again.
