Tikka chassis replacement

[toprak]

I want to get and will likely replace the factory chassis of a t3x for hunting. Just wondering what type of stocks you all replace it with

Manners, McMillan, bell&carlson, AG composites are options for carbon and synthetics, If you're after an actual chassis then MDT and Cadex are both excellent options and are Canadian made

GRS stocks, made in Norway.

KRG Bravo is nice too and fairly inexpensive.

if you hunt in cold weather , a chassis is very cold to the touch. also some after markets are quiet heavy.

Depends what the chassis is made of...

almost all are aluminum , it transfers heat or cold very well. example MDT . not like a covered chassis like a KRG bravo

What's wrong with the original stock for hunting?

FWIW if it is wood and you want synthetic you can get a fairly cheap T3x Varmint takeoff stock. PM me if you think you might want to go that route.

I was wondering what a chassis was? then I saw you were inquiring about stocks. I replaced the "chassis" on my T3 with a Boyd's stock. Very happy with it.

A chassis and a stock are similar but different. A chassis is a “frame” usually made out of aluminum and accepts an AR style butt stock and grip making it more modular.

I have both the KRG Bravo and the GRS Hybrid.

If it was for hunting in cold/wet conditions, I would choose the KRG Bravo for stability.

If you are Varminting, I LIKE THE GRS.

So both Tikkas are build thusly: Hunter is in a KRG Bravo, Varminter is in the GRS
