    Did anyone else order a Body's Tacticool yet?


    Just saw the posting from Boyd's that it was available today. I went and ordered two for my last two Axis builds.

    Anyone else order yet? It said out of stock when I ordered, so I'm wondering if their waiting til they have the orders to make them, if the site's not updated, or if they already sold what they had.

    Can't wait to get them!

    Opening up the barrel channel should be pretty easy. I've done it with my Prairie hunter on my 308 Axis, and a few other stocks.

    A dowel, socket, or pipe of the proper diameter, and some sand paper is all it takes. Well, that and a little time and elbow grease.

    Yes sir..i did. I actually ordered one before they even posted that they would be available so im 100% positive that they were never IN STOCK as i had to be one of the first to order. Might just be finishing up the final details.

    Tried to reply to your PM, but your inbox is full.

    Last I saw, Jen said Axis stocks were following their standard out of stock time, 1-2 weeks, rather than the 4 weeks, but not sure if that includes the Tacticool.

    I ordered a tacticool stock about 6 months ago for my Savage Model 11 (posted pictures right after the install). It only comes with a cavity for a blind magazine so I built one using parts from the detachable mag that came with my original Trophy Hunter. I believe I ordered the varmint barrel contour and it fits my EABCO .260 barrel like a glove. I installed a Karsten cheek rest and I plan to sink a rail into the forend so I can either attach a swivel stud, a bipod or leave it bare for shooting from a front rest. Pacific Tool and Gauge is coming out with new bottom metal for Savage short action and they even have a version that accommodates the bolt release that is just forward of the trigger. If I get it in gear to set up a sled for my router, I might be able to do a decent job of cutting an inlet for the PTG bottom metal and AIS box magazine.

    I just checked the website, and don't see that option. Does this need to be done over the phone? Price difference? Can already placed orders be updated?

    Thanks!

    Decided to stick with the textured black finish on both of these (will probably get a different laminate for a 110 build), and they are scheduled to arrive tomorrow!

    I'm ready to buy a laminate Tacticool for my lefty FLV 12 in .223. Probably a stoopid question but I'll ask anyways: could I get it checkered?? I didn't see an option for it.

    Here you go! Had to open up the barrel channels, and decided to paint one.

    223 with 22 inch heavy Savage barrel.


    243 with 20 inch heavy McGowen barrel.

    Unfortunately at this time we do not have any checkering options for the TactiCool models, we are adding new options weekly and I will be sure to let Engineering/Design know that this would be a good option to add!!

    Unfortunately we are not equipped for this type of custom option (altering a standard shape) at this time. However we are working on several new shapes/designs and I will be sure to let our design team know that this should be an option! Thanks for the inquiry!
