Very nice. What's the deal with the stock? Looks like the tactical, but I haven't seen it before.
That's the tactical lite buttstock. It's an upgrade, but not yet listed on the website.

I do not feel it is an upgrade, but more of a downgrade from the "Tactical buttstock". It does weigh less, but at the expense of the recoil pads adjustment range. Kyle pretty much just removed one of the spacers between the stock and the pad. There is still adjustment, but not near as much.
I've never used the original tactical buttstock, so I can't compare them. The lite has plenty enough adjustment range for me, but I'm 5'10". People on either end of the extreme scale might have an issue, I suppose.
Are you calling me a midget!?!?!?
Does anyone know if you can run a 338 edge on a la chassis? Will a cip mag fit in it ? I have been told different things
I have the tactical butt stock with the QD flush cups on both left and right sides. Was wondering if the one on the left side is a different cup from the one on the right side. The left side QD flush cup will not hold. The QD swivel clicks but any pressure and it pops right out, while the same QD swivel on the right side holds tight enough that you could hang from it. I am thinking they are glued in or I would just turn them around.
Thanks

hay KYLE -- is the base base model evo non hd cheek rest adjustable like the rest of them? i would assume so but cant see any bolts or what not to the riser in your pics on the site?
also if ordered say fri or monday what is lead time ???
I don't have a Tikka, but I do have the Carbon chassis on a R700, and love it.I am after a light riflestock package to build around a Tikka T3 Varmint, to be used for shooting plates along with some long range hunting on the mountains.
As the weight issue is paramount, I was looking at the XLR carbon, which seems to be the lightest option, so far....
I'd be also interested in the folding stock options, for carring purposes while hiking.
Because of the weight "limit", I'd put just a small picatinny rail on front bottom (bipod mount purposes)....
Please, chip in with your advices....
Is there Someone who has this package on the same rifle and could tell me the total weight ?
Additionally, does the XLR also fit the Short Magnum Tikka's action, or just the 223/308 one ?
Thanks for your help.
P.S.: I must admit that some pictures look awesome, especially the ones with the camo paint job...

Thanks. Can I ask you how much your 700 package weighs ?
Love the colors man, really clean look. Is the barreled action a lighter color tan tan the stock? You remember what the color names were?
Has anyone ever experimented with attaching a flatter butt pad to the XLR stock? Is there another butt pad on the market that would satisfy that need? Anyone ever try to modify the ACE butt pad?
I've had a little trouble getting comfortable using a rear bag with the regular tactical butt stock. Does anyone else have this problem? The problem is that the bottom side is so narrow and smooth. Those are pluses when you're running and gunning, but there's nothing for a rear bag to grab on to. I might have been better off with the xtreme butt stock. Still experimenting, but I like the ridge I'm seeing on this new butt stock.
Anyone know if Kyle is offline? Sent him an Email and left VM, but no response to either.

By the way Kyle told me that there should not be any fitment issues with Timney triggers and any of the chassis systems.
He responded last night to A PM that I left late last week. He must be really busy!
I'm new to this forum. I just ordered a carbon chassis and have a few handguard questions. I see some chassis' have cuts for rails on the top and some do not. Do you have to request these as additional cuts? Will the carbon handguard support a PVS-27?
For the Carbon chassis there are no slots cut at the 12 o'clock position unless requested. Generally most do not use NV so the preference is to have no slots to mitigate mirage. We can add them at no charge at any time for you if you are planning on running NV.
Thanks, Kyle ~ XLR
