Bastion Tikka Stock Dark Green & Grey Sponge — lightweight, precision-focused rifle stock

The Bastion stock for Tikka actions, finished in Dark Green & Grey Sponge, is engineered for long-range shooters who need precision without added bulk. Weighing just 24 ounces with a 13.25" length of pull, it balances stability and portability to suit extended field days and precision practice.

Its ultra-comfortable vertical grip promotes a natural hand position that improves sight alignment and trigger control. In practical use, shooters notice reduced fatigue during long sessions and faster recovery between shots.

Key features and specifications

• Weight: 24 ounces — optimized for mobility and transport.
• Length of Pull: 13.25" — ergonomic reach for most shooters.
• Carbon Bedding Block: rigid action support for consistent point of impact.
• Negative Comb: low cheek profile for quicker, repeatable stock-to-eye relationship.
• Advanced Ergonomics: contours and angles designed for comfort during prolonged use.
• Vertical Grip: improves control and natural forearm alignment.
• 3D Hex Recoil Pad: recoil interface engineered to disperse forces.
• Dual Front Swivel Studs: secure mounting points for bipods and slings.

Each spec contributes to a better shooting experience: the carbon bedding block enhances shot-to-shot consistency while the negative comb simplifies cheek weld. When carrying across terrain, the low overall weight reduces fatigue yet maintains a solid platform.

Field advantages and practical recommendations

For long-range applications, the Bastion stands out by providing a compact platform that still supports precision. The vertical grip aids in maintaining alignment for extended strings of fire, and the 3D hex recoil pad moderates the felt impulse during repeated shooting.

Before installation, confirm action compatibility with your specific Tikka model and fine-tune length of pull to suit your body mechanics. Shooters often find that small incremental adjustments to the stock-to-trigger distance lead to noticeably better cheek position and steadier aim.

In active use, the combination of carbon bedding and ergonomic shaping helps preserve ballistic consistency. The dual swivel studs allow quick switching between hands-free carry and a stable bipod setup, which is useful during long observation periods.

FAQs and practical tips

Is this stock suitable for competition and hunting? Yes — its low weight and refined ergonomics make it versatile for both disciplines where mobility and accuracy are priorities.

How to care for it? Keep bedding and contact surfaces clean, check fasteners periodically, and avoid harsh chemicals. After heavy use, verify bedding integrity to maintain consistency.

Adjustment tip: mount the stock loosely at first and test cheek weld and eye alignment before final torquing. Minor changes in length of pull often yield major comfort improvements.
