I know you asked about a LA, but I stuck one on my 10FP.
I needed a slightly longer front action screw, otherwise fits perfectly. Now I can shoot 175SMK's at the 1K gong all day with all but zero kick.

[calib]

did the stock come with replacement screws? my choate tactical doesnt hardly kick at all.

indd up ordering one of the sniper stalks in long anction. got a good deal on it brand new didnt want to let it pass buy.

[darkker]

Didn't come with replacement screws, but I had one that worked from my various pile O Savage parts.

[calib]

i think i have some replacement screw around here some where. hope they work

is the choate sniper stock as drop in friendly as the tactical?

I tried one of their Ultimate Sniper stocks, but found that the protrusion running aft from the pistol grip rubbed on my wrist bone. Not comfortable for me. I just ordered the Ultimate Tactical stock; looks like a decent copy of the McMillan A5, but with an aluminum bedding block like a HS Precision or Stockade. Stock should be here next week, and I got it with the CDI Precision bottom metal to use AI mags. I'll post pics on the build after it's all finished.

i really lke my tactiacl stock. very comfortable to shoot. what is the protrusion that you are talking about, is it plastic or metal? could you file it down to smooth it out or is it neccesary to the stock?

[Aircraftmech76]

It's the piece that runs from the bottom of the pistol grip to the buttplate.

oh i gotcha

put super sniper on my 10fp 300wsm.perfect fit and it adjusted to fit me perfectly.with bushnell elite 10x40 my groups went from 3/4 to 1/2 in.love everything about this stock.love it or hate it,for the price 190.00 and it also came with new screws and two cheek pieces,it does the job.also have model 110 30-06 heavy barrel in the varmint,both are outstanding.the 300wsm is my long range target,hitting consistantly at 750 yards at 16x16 steel plate

[calib]

nice, i have shot great groups out of my 243ai in the tactical stock no bedding job or anything.

has anyone bedded the choate

[calib]

got my stock today, now if i only had my barrel i would be in buisness.

[Blue Avenger]

put the old one back on and go shot! You need the practice ;)

[calib]

I only bought the action that's in this stock or else I probably would to see how the stock feel

[Aircraftmech76]

Got my Choate Tactical and CDI bottom metal package deal today from Tacticalworks. I don't know why I waited so long to purchase one of these things (stock or bottom metal). The stock is flat-out ergonomic as all get-out, and the bottom metal is machined to perfection. I can't wait to get all my parts put together to complete my 6.5x47 Lapua repeater...

you will love that stock as you have already noticed its comfortable. hope the bottom metal works out for you. i have not done a build with any magazines. mine have always been the blind so i dont know how all that works, but still good luck with it.

I read the sniper is heavier than the tactical, which I love for target but would not tote hunting. Seems like I saw the varmint is lighter that the sniper, which seemed strange since they look very similar in the pictures. Does anyone know the true weight comparisons; I don't believe all the ads I have seen.
