I’m hoping to throw a question out here for the people who have some experience with Tikka mods, as I’m a bit stumped.
I have a T3X D-18 that I bought from Cabela’s with the truetimber stock on it, with the intention of replacing the stock with a drop in bar a later date.
Within the pst couple months I have bought a T3X stock from B&C and Stocky’s, and neither on have fit. The barely channel seems fine and the rear let of the receiver cold be okay, but the widest part of the receiver/action area is quite a bit too wide to drop in to the stock. Is there something about the D-18 version that is different than a standard T3x? Or is it something obvious that I’m missing?
I was planning on a drop in stock as I really don’t want to take it to a gunsmith for any significant fitting. But I’ll go that route if necessary.
Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated.
