Chassis that is adjustable enough to fit a child but adjust enough to fit a small woman?

[Bulldog Firearms]

I'm trying to get a precision rifle put together for my wife who is 5' tall and my son who is turning 5 this month. Is there a chassis out there that is adjustable enough that would accommodate a young child's length of pull as well as enough adjustment to fit a small lady? I'm not sure if something like that exists, but R700/clone footprint would be preferable.

The Manners MCS-CS might work?

MDT chassis and an XLR buttstock. My daughter could easily get on it at age 8, and it will expand to adult size.

I found grip size to be as important as length of pull. Kids have little hands. The mdt I bought uses AR grips. I found the smallest grip I could and then sanded it even smaller.

I have a KRG X-Ray on my Tikka. I dont know what the length of pull is, but I have over 2 inches of spacers on the butt plate to get it to fit me correctly, which makes me think the LOP is rather short. Might be worth looking at.

Masterpiece Arms makes a youth chassis with lots of adjustment.

Craig at PDC Custom has done chassis systems for shorter-statured shooters before. I'm sure he could set you up with something that would work for both of them, and grow with your 5 year old as he gets bigger. Craig also does a shorter reach from the grip to the trigger, and a shorter grip, which makes a BIG difference for shooters with smaller hands, and it's a detail often overlooked by other 'youth' type chassis systems.

This!

XLR. Adjusts down to 7” LOP. AR grips like mentioned above, most people forget about grip size and distance to the trigger with kids tiny hands

 

[XLR Industries]

Our chassis systems have been renowned for their ability to fit anyone who gets behind them! The LOP adjustment on our buttstocks is unmatched, and all of our systems are fit for Rem 700 SA & LA in both right and left hand.

But don't just take our word for it, here are a couple of articles & reviews regarding fitment and adjustability for shooters of all sizes. If you have any questions don't hesitate to reach out!

The lop on a Remington 700 can only go so low until the bolt hits the cheek riser. A mdt chassis with a standard buffer tub will get you down around 11.5 inches. The nice thing about the ar buffer tube type lop adjustment is the quickness of the adjustment. If you do not have the rifle yet a Ruger precision in 223 might be the way to go if your on a budget.

McMillan A10 might be a good solution

I would give Craig a call at pdc custom. Great customer service and he can get you exactly what you need.

Not trying to be smart or anything but, for first hand info ask Lowlight what he recommends.

+1 to the MPA recommendation above. Phil Cashin puts a lot into the long range shooting sports. Very cool that they are making a smaller size chassis.
