I'm in same position. My gunsmith and I both ordered night stalkers same day of announcement. Mine was ordered in high plains paint.

I did the standard gap(not elite gap) camo on a elite carbon shell. Don't see that too much so that might cause a delay maybe.

Got mine... and oh man !! It is worth it !!! So many great features !! @tmanners knocked it out of the park

Pulsar Krypton will clip on the EFR for night work.

18" 22 CM running the 62VT at 3551 with Varget

The extra high Seekins provides perfect alignment for the Pulsar.

Damn that's a good looking stock...

You take a real weight on it by chance?

Sendero_Man · Sep 19, 2024

No, I did not weigh it.

It balances very well and I really like the longer arca rail Manners used. Runs the tripod very well !!

What’s the distance between the action rail and the bridge in the furthest rearward position as pictured, if you don’t mind?

4.25"

I'm running the NF 2.5-10x42 on it

Is there any update by chance?

Received mine yesterday - Ordered 1/30

Put it together just to tear it all apart for cerakote on the action and barrel.

Did you go with a chassis? I ordered a micro but they sent it with a mini.

My rig weights right at 12lbs and wondering if 3oz difference between the 2 will make an actual difference in feel.

I went with the mini chassis to keep some weight toward the back since I’ll be running a clip on at times. It’s not a super light stock to begin with so I wasn’t worried about shaving every ounce I could.

How does it balance with the can and bipod on?

It felt good with the bipod but I didnt put a can on yet since I tore it apart for cerakote. That bipod is heavy too being a Harris with arca/pic adapter, I use it when leveling scopes.

This might be the coolest Manners ever.

You built the same rifle in pretty much doing... Glad to hear it should be able to make 15 np then with the bipod. Was that including the efr and pic rails?

Back from cerakote. Had the barrel on the other 22cm done while i was at it.

Conrad · Wednesday at 11:48 PM

While this is built for tripod use, how is it shooting prone with a rear bag at standard 13.5" LOP for reference?

Sendero_Man · Thursday at 9:02 AM

it's fine, easy to do. rides my Game Changer well.

Me too, I’m trying real hard to not be that guy that calls asking where I’m at in the order list, patiently waiting for now

I wanted to build a rifle that was lighter than my other rifles and this stock is perfect for my CDG 223 rem. Only thing missing now is a lighter scope to reduce a little more weight.

Any issues running an AICS mag on the CDG?

BigSkyRF · Sunday at 4:14 AM

First kill with the night stalker. 505 with a thermal clip on. Missed a little up wind and followed up with one to the dome.

No issues

how do these compare to MDT HNT26?

10x as strong and rigid as the flimsy hnt26.

2X as heavy but balances really really good.

Allows you to use the bottom metal of your choice.

NV bridge actually co-plains with the top of an impact action perfectly. Hunt 26 was no where close.

20x as cool.
