    new choate tactical


    i installed the new choate tactical on my 12 FV, wonder if anyone feels something different about the palm swell on the grip, seems big to me and i have big hands, i am thinking of grinding the stock a bit for a more comfortable fit just behind the palm swell, can't seem to find a comfortable grip yet

    Are you just wanting opinions on it?

    I've been shooting the Ultimate Sniper for a long time, it's palm swell is bigger than the tactical. I think it feels odd at first, but for control and getting to the controls I quite like it.
    I'm a firm believer in the theory that if it bleeds, I can kill it.

    I reshaped the fat grip on my Bell & Carlson Medalist Varmint/Tactical. I laid My palm & thumb on the grip and drew around it with a magic marker. Then I rapped a 4cell mag light with 80grit sand paper and worked it down until My palm and thumb are a perfect fit. Now it feels just like My Ross Thumbhole stocks. I sealed it with polyester resin, then painted it. :-)

    The Tactical is different from the Sniper, or Varmint stocks. It doesnt have the super aggressive texture, but has a really big palm swell, but they are heavy.


    eta: here is what they look like.

    I have a Choate Tactical for my new Savage/223 build. The Choate Tactical palm swell is MUCH larger than my Manners T5 stocks. Hopefully it doesn't take to too long to get used to it.
