Tikka Fit Checklist | Nokka Tactical

Identify the main symptom

Quick read: head lift, scope shadow, or floating cheek usually means comb height is too low. Cramped or stretched trigger reach usually means length of pull needs work. If the stock is already too long, do not add LOP spacers.

Set eye relief and scope position first

With the rifle unloaded and your actual scope and rings fitted, shoulder it naturally from the positions you use. Move the scope until the sight picture is full and shadow-free before judging length of pull or cheek height.

Check length of pull

After eye relief is close, shoulder the rifle naturally with your normal clothing on. Your trigger finger should fall naturally on the trigger face, the recoil pad should sit in the shoulder pocket without snagging, and you should not need to stretch your neck toward the scope.

Factory length feels rightNo spacer change needed.

Stock feels shortFor every LOP spacer, use one spacer by default. A multi-piece stack can be used only in special cases, but it does not create the strongest possible connection and is not the recommended default. If stacking is required, glue the spacer pieces together before final installation and contact us first.

Stock feels longDo not add spacers; look at thinner pads, compact stock options, or fit advice.

Check comb height

With eye relief set, close your eyes and shoulder the rifle naturally. Open your eyes without moving your head. If the sight picture is not centered, stack card or thin foam on the comb until your eye opens into a full sight picture, then measure the stack.

Full sight picture immediatelyComb height is probably close.

Need to lift your headComb is too low.

Need to press down or roll your headComb or riser may be too high.

Change stock or chassisChoose this path when you want a different magazine system, attachment layout, or a full ergonomics change.

Still diagnosingMeasure cheek rise and length of pull first; send notes if the symptoms point in different directions.

Quick answers before you choose a fit part

What should I set first?

Set eye relief with your actual scope and rings before judging cheek height or stock length. A scope-position issue can look like a stock-fit issue.

When does a spacer make sense?

Consider a spacer only when the factory stock feels short after eye relief is set and your trigger reach feels cramped. Do not add one to a stock that already feels long.
