Most of the pics show stocks with non adjustable stocks concerning height of the butt pad. Any issues with those? Looking for training rifles for students and currently favour the KRG Bravo/Whiskey 3.

Thanks for any Info in advance!

Cheers
 
Odd question maybe not the correct place either but has anyone drilled out the front action screw access hole on the plastic forend piece so you have access to the front screw to be able to pull it completely out? If so have you had any issues with that forend piece at all?
 
First build on krg Bravo and o feel I’m not loosing much to more expensive chassis. You can upgrade so much from KRG and otherwise that it’s awsome to be able to do as budget allows. So versatile.

One of my PRS builds currently is .223 trainer:
KRG bravo, Burris xtr III. Shilen NSS bull .223 vld. Rifle basix target. Love this build great foray into customs.

This is the first I've heard of this. It looks nice, can you share some details?
It's fantastic. Gives you a full billet aluminum forend that is about 15" long and has an integral arca rail, MLOK slots on both sides and the bottom, flush cups, accepts the long (XL) internal KRG t-slot weight and still allows the use of KRG NV bridges. Weighs about 2lbs so helped with the balance some too (and I added some XLR forend weights). It really feels like a legit chassis now, with the rear ergos of a more traditional stock. I'm really happy with it so far on my rimfire. Was able to balanced the 20" barrel perfectly.

Awesome, thank you. I was thinking about the new krg forend for my bravo, but this sounds better.

Where did you get the foam on the cheek riser? I need one.
That is a Hoptic Saddle blanket.

Any idea how this compares to the Vision forend for KRG?
 
Figured I would contribute to the KRG Bravo love! I love this rifle. Great ergos, and have the grip weight and buttstock weights added for perfect balance. 18lbs 9oz.

I see you used paracord for your rear sling mount. I’m thinking of doing that as well plus a BFG uloop, as if I use a QD push button the thing hits me in the jaw!

Anyway, mind sharing any tips or tricks with either the knot you used or the diameter or type of cord?

Move your rear QD socket to the other side. I prefer the way the rifle carries on the sling that way, and it also keeps the sling swivel away from your face.
Perhaps I should’ve mentioned how I carry. How do you carry your rifle?

I don’t patrol carry, I like across the chest, muzzle up, gun on my back. Not sure your solution would work in that scenario, but I’ve never tried it.

I also use a Tab biathlon sling, and I’m also pretty sure your solution wouldn't work there either.

In any case, thanks for trying to help; I appreciate it!

I typically carry mine on a Magpul MS-1, muzzle down on my strong side, sling across my chest/over the weak side shoulder.
 
I started carrying mine that way after hearing Caylen from Modern Day Sniper talk about carrying that way to maintain muzzle control and awareness while walking around with a rifle and a backpack and other hunters with him. I often have my (mostly clueless) 11 year old son with me in the woods, and I do feel like carrying this way helps me keep the muzzle oriented where he won't aimlessly walk in front of it. The trade off is that I have to pay attention to avoid jabbing the muzzle into the ground or banging it against rocks, logs, etc.
