Hi, I’ve got a Tikka T3 Tac A1 and very long arms…

I have used all of the stock spacers supplied with my rifle but still do not have enough stock for it to sit comfortably in to my shoulder.

What solutions are there to get more length to my stock? any????

I assume this is a scoped rifle normally fired from a bi-pod. If the stock is too short, I assume this is placing your eye too close to the scope. Can't you just move the scope forwards an inch and bend your elbow a bit more? If not, Lyman sell stock spacers - Hannam's are the Lyman importers. You'll need longer screws of course but this shouldn't be an issue.

Hi, I’ve already moved the scope as forwards as is comfortable, the issue is my gorilla length arms lol

What about taking one of the stock supplied spacers into a machine shop, and getting them to copy it and then machine up some thicker ones?

does that mean that one will not work with your stock?

Wouldn't a couple of black nylon or aluminium spacers do it with longer screws.

I'm sure there's someone on here with a 3D printer that could knock something up.

I do, but I don't know what shape he'd need
