Do I want a KRG bravo? Updated-Got one!!

[jhnvan]

For those pointing out the boney cheek rest issue. These cheek riser pads are a great investment.

Got myself one as well (a KRG Bravo and a Wiebad cheek pad) from Go BIG Tactical. Tom was amazing to deal with!!! I'll be going to him again in the future!

I agree with what other have posted, fit and finish is not perfect but it's also half the price of their Whiskey chassis. The cheek rest is quite uncomfortable for extended periods of time without a cheek pad on there, it does come with a nice butt pad, it's adjustable quite easily, and plenty of accessories for it which is great!

Laker415, Have you received your bravo chassis yet? How do you like it?

Here is mine!

 

[Chargerguy]

I really like the Bravo, especially for the price. It's an excellent value. Picked up a short action and long action from Tom.

What cheek riser pad do you have on there Mr. Sparkle?

 

[jhnvan]

What cheek riser pad do you have on there Mr. Sparkle?

that's looks like the Wiebad cheek pad made for the Bravo chassis. It's well made and makes the chassis much better for extended periods of time.

 

[Mr.Sparkle]

What cheek riser pad do you have on there Mr. Sparkle?

jhnvan is correct! Wiebad for the win!

I just tucked in the rather large tag so it wasn't sticking out.

Where did you find one of those riser pads?

Where did you find one of those riser pads?

Go Big Tactical quit carrying Wiebad products - don't think anyone else in Canada carries them.

I ordered directly from Wiebad in the US. Fedex International Economy includes brokerage fees.

Edit, sorry I thought bullseye had them as they sell Wiebad. I ordered mine direct from Wiebad.

What did it cost you all in ordering direct from Wiebad if you don't mind me asking?

Unfortunately when service and supply cannot be obtained we had to move on. Hopefully a comparable product surfaces

I bought mine from Wiebad in the US. Luckily I have a buddy who lives about 30 miles from Wiebad so I had it sent to him and saved a few bucks on shipping. Wiebad's web site shows you the shipping costs, FYI.

The riser pad is definitely expensive, but unless you are willing to fabricate you own, it is the only one currently available for the Bravo. The fit of the Wiebad is perfect! I am glad I purchased it, despite the cost.

Yeah it's too bad Tom, the product is very good. You gotta do what you gotta do.

What did it cost you all in ordering direct from Wiebad if you don't mind me asking?

Mine was $64.30 USD shipped ($40 + $24.30). No other fees or taxes. Fedex International Economy includes brokerage fees.

Having owned both a Bravo and the new MDT XRS, I'd suggest taking a hard look at the XRS.

 

[redneckchris]

I’m sure a lot of you would love a free KRG Brovo,
Check out the promotion Go Big Tactical has on this month,

Yes but they don't make it for the Tikka T1X... So our options are limited.

True, the XRS is brand new and only available for 700 footprint actions. Email MDT and tell them you want one for a T1X, I know they're working on new inlets.

I glued a nice flat mouse pad piece to my hard plain plastic rear stock on my Savage Stealth. works great,
