Two of the biggest concerns we will have: 1) being able to quickly get any parts inside the US; 2) the length of pull. I know most have adjustable buttstocks, but the Anschutz she has been shooting doesn’t allow for the adjustment that she needs (length of pull is too long even at shortest adjustme...

...a local source has about 6 G&E, 6 Tanner, about 4 Keppeler rifles available, one Bleiker, some pre-tested or verified 0.1MOA Anschutz in Keppeler and Otakar stocks, and even a lowly and "cheap" Walther GX-1 as a complete kit or set. It's more a matter of knowing where to look. 0.1 ...

Not mine but looks like a good choice… https://targettalk.org/viewtopic.php?t=69458 A 1907 might be better, depending om your daughter’s age and build… 1913 is heavy, and a lot if forward weight… That's a 1912, not a 1913 though. That usually shipped with a 1907 barreled action, and the stock was a...

Ah it was something like the Proliner I had in mind, I doubt you'll find much stiffer. Maybe another option might be to find a piece of thick leather or rubber etc, and put that in the palm of your hand to try and imitate a wider stock? If it worked maybe you could cut it to shape and glue the bits...

Another option to increase the forearm width or change the corner radius is a bolt-on forearm section. I've made a few for guys that preferred the height and corner radius feel of an 1813-style forearm over their Precise stocks. The last one I made was for a Fanatic stock. Depending how you orient ...

Have you thought about trying a different glove rather than changing the stock? A stiffer or slightly bulkier one might well solve the problem That's a thought, and certainly a cheaper option than a new stock. I'm using a Monard Proliner right now, which seems quite stiff already. I suppose I could...

No apologies necessary -- I appreciate the details and the lived experiences with those stocks. I saw the SE as well and I did find what I think is a forearm width: it's the same as the Precise if memory serves (though now, of course, I can't find where I tracked it down). I''ve heard the same about...

Extremely helpful, thank you so much!

How do you like the stock in general? I'd likely only be using it for prone.

Anyone have a Tec-HRO Fanatic that they'd be willing to measure the forearm width on? I'm in the market for a stock to replace my Precise, and my number one complaint is the forearm width: it's narrower than I'd like but finding an alternative that isn't $3000+ has been a challenge. Appreciate any h...

Any Anschutz rear sight no matter the age should fit your 2002 SSP: they haven't changed that standard in decades and the rounded/curved top has never mattered that I know of. For the front, the easiest way to check is to just see if the rear sight will clamp onto the front dovetail: if it does, you...

The adjustable front sight aperture on my Palma gun managed to lose part of the inner bit that provides the adjustable ring in the middle of my last match. Any options for repair, besides just buying a new one?

Thanks for the update, Jober!

+1 for the iM3200 from me, too. It strikes the right balance of length, and can fit cross-ways in the trunk of any sedan on the market. The airlines don't even give you a second glance about it being oversize. The only downside is that since it is so common, you definitely need to add some markings ...

Elite Shooting Sport, and Joe Hein, the owner, are terrific; but I believe the OP was looking for something a little closer than 1100 miles... :-)

They would be another vendor to get in touch with, though.

Unfortunately there aren't any stores in or around LA anymore since Creedmoor moved to Alabama. Your friend could likely arrange for Champion's Choice or one of the other vendors to ship items to their hotel while they're in the US, but there isn't a store you can visit to try on items, sadly.

Thanks for the update! Glad to hear you are still having a great time, and have come into the gun you love!

The stock itself is Right vs. Left Handed. While you can likely swap the grip, you won't be able to switch the cheekpiece to the other side. Also, the stock has a slight offset to the right for a right-handed action, so even if you could swap the cheekpiece it would likely feel fairly weird. In addi...

Tim S wrote:Wanting a 7002 just because is a different matter.

That is an incredibly true statement.

Assuming your current sight is working fine from a mechanical standpoint, the only real advantage of the 7002 sight is the ability to adjust for cant in your position. The ability to bring the elevation and windage knobs back to true vertical and true horizontal is a big advantage when you have the ...
