Now you have an eye for stocks and I remember you were very impressed with the lines on my old 7 saum stock I’m biased towards manners but for good reason shape fit finish and options are out standing the bull of other carbon stocks iv seen are very straight not a lot of though to shooting posture

Having spoken to glacier a bit, they ll make whatever stock you want, providing you pay for the custom mould. You could design the next NZHS forum stock, ask members who like your design and want to put money toward the project contribute, and see how it goes .

I quite like the raven stock available on the tikkas distributed in France. A real and useful palm swell , not an ambidextrous one to save on mould and production costs.

NZHS forum stock: My suggestion would be the Sako quest (GRS) stock but with a.bigger bag rider and a non adjustable but high cheek piece. Add in taped holes just forward of the mag box for an arca rail/pic and a flush mounted pic rail/QD attachment at the forend. QD flush cup at the rear and finish it Matt clear coat.

This in any weight under 800gms would be epic!

These is pretty close to ideal.

Looks like my 300prc

Cheers Nick, need to get you behind one. I've got another model almost complete with shorter and narrower forend but the same backend as the XM, something that has been requested by many who love the old Apex/new XM35 but only use a bipod.

Ah that sounds interesting.

Hey Clive, then that would make it perfect! I’d be all over one of those

I looked at bringing one of those in, but the only dealer that would do it was clipping the ticket big time. Would have been $2500 by the time I got it. Don’t need one that bad

Once the sus production issues they are going to be happy to sell direct. Much better price at that point. Until then I'm waiting for Clive to release this next stock as its pretty close to ideal and I imagine it's getting to diminishing returns realms.

With Stocks everyone has there own ideas on what's best and for many they are right in the way they use gear. If you only hunt by stalking to a flat spot to shoot from is different than wanting to be able to shoot from field positions. I'm trying to get better with positional shooting and just started playing with a tripod. I however absolutely hate an arca rail at the balance point but maybe a recessed plate may work better. I need to find a used tikka stock to start cutting up.
