Tikka T3x Flat-Recoil LOP Spacer — Pad-Angle Length-of-Pull (fits T3/T3x/T1x)
// Fitment & specsDetails before you buy
Key details on fit, setup and use before you buy.
Three simple steps
Remove the recoil pad
Back out the two pad screws and lift the factory pad off.
Fit the spacer
Seat one selected Flat-Recoil spacer as the default setup so the pad sits square to the bore.
Special-case stack
The rule applies to every LOP spacer: only stack in a special case, glue the spacer pieces together before final installation, and use confirmed locating and fastening hardware.
Reattach the pad
Run the longer screws through and snug the pad back down.
Common questions
How is this different from a standard LOP spacer?+
It still adds length of pull, but its angled rear face also changes how the recoil pad sits against your shoulder. Choose it when pad angle is part of the fit problem you want to test.
Does it also change length of pull?+
Yes. It adds the selected spacer size while changing pad angle at the rear face.
What sizes does it come in?+
10 mm, 20 mm, and 30 mm added length of pull. If you are unsure, measure your current fit first and choose the smallest spacer that gets you close.
Will it fit my Tikka and recoil pad?+
It is built for Tikka T3, T3x, and T1x OEM stocks and works with the factory pad and aftermarket pads including Limbsaver. It bolts between the stock and pad with no permanent stock modification.
Should I start with the fit checklist first?+
Yes if you are unsure whether the issue is length of pull, pad angle, cheek height, or scope position. Use the checklist first, then choose the smallest spacer size that gets you close.
Can I stack Flat-Recoil or other LOP spacers?+
For every LOP spacer, use one spacer by default. Stacking any combination of LOP spacers can be done only in special cases, but a multi-piece stack does not create the strongest possible connection and is not our recommended default. If stacking is required, glue the spacer pieces together before final installation and use only the confirmed locating and fastening hardware for the setup. Contact us first if the stacked setup and hardware have not already been confirmed.

Nokka is a one-person workshop and I'm away for personal reasons until then. You're welcome to order now to hold your place in the print queue — everything goes out in order as soon as I'm back. If you'd rather not wait, that's completely fine: email info@nokkatac.com with your order number and I'll refund you in full.
The Nokka Flat-Recoil LOP Spacer is a length-of-pull spacer with an angled rear face. It changes how the recoil pad sits against your shoulder so the pad angle is more square to the bore line, while still adding stock length in the selected spacer size.
Use it when you want length-of-pull adjustment and more deliberate shoulder-contact geometry without swapping the factory Tikka stock.
Which size? Each Flat-Recoil is a one-piece wedge in 10, 20 or 30 mm — no stacking, no adapter plate. The 30 mm has been the most-chosen size so far: if the stock is clearly short once eye relief is set, that is the usual pick. Between sizes? Run the fit checklist first.

How it works
The spacer sits between the stock and recoil pad. Its angled rear face changes the pad angle while the spacer body adds length of pull. Choose the size that matches your fit check, then install it between the OEM stock and recoil pad with the supplied hardware.
What's in the box
- 1× Flat-Recoil LOP spacer in the selected size
- Extended fasteners where required
Compatibility
Works with Tikka T3, T3x, and T1x OEM stocks. Compatible with factory and aftermarket recoil pads including Limbsaver.
Shooting a T3x ACE or a UPR? The T3x ACE Target, T3x ACE Game, T3x UPR and T1x UPR use a different buttstock geometry and mounting pattern, so this spacer is not the right part for them. Use the ACE and UPR length of pull kit instead.

A note on manufacturing
Nokka parts are precision 3D printed in Australia. As with any 3D-printed part, small cosmetic variations — faint layer lines or slight surface-texture differences between batches — can occur. These are normal for the process and do not affect fit or function.
Who is this for?
Tikka owners who already know they need more length of pull and want to test pad-angle geometry at the same time. It is still a simple spacer: the difference is the angled rear face and how it positions the recoil pad against the shoulder.
If you only need length-of-pull adjustment, choose the standard Nokka LOP Spacer Kit. Choose Flat-Recoil when pad angle is part of the fit problem you are trying to solve — or when you want a one-piece 30 mm.
Also need cheek-height adjustment? The Tikka Performance Kit pairs a Flat-Recoil spacer with the Drop Comb Cheek Riser for A$13–15 less than buying the two parts separately.
Common questions
Flat-Recoil or the standard LOP Spacer Kit?
The standard kit is a flat spacer: it adds length and nothing else, which is exactly right when length is the only problem. Flat-Recoil is a raked wedge that adds length and sets the recoil pad more square to the bore line. Choose it if the pad sits at an angle in your shoulder pocket, or if you want a one-piece 30 mm.
Does it reduce recoil?
No part bolted to a stock reduces recoil energy, and we won't claim this one does. What it changes is direction: a pad sitting squarer to the bore line delivers the recoil straighter back into your shoulder instead of loading it into the comb and your cheek. That straighter push is what many shooters describe as "flatter" recoil. Our stock-fit and recoil article explains the mechanics.
Which size should I choose?
Set eye relief with your scope and rings fitted first, then judge the stock length. If it is clearly short, the 30 mm is the size most Flat-Recoil buyers have chosen. If it is only a little short, start with 10 or 20 mm. The fit checklist walks through the measurement.
Can I stack Flat-Recoil spacers?
Each size is a one-piece wedge, so you shouldn't need to. For every LOP spacer, use one spacer by default. Stacking any combination of LOP spacers can be done only in special cases, but a multi-piece stack does not create the strongest possible connection and is not our recommended default. If stacking is required, glue the spacer pieces together before final installation and use only the confirmed locating and fastening hardware for the setup. Contact us first if the stacked setup and hardware have not already been confirmed.
Will this fit a T3x ACE or a UPR?
No. The ACE and UPR use a different buttstock geometry and mounting pattern from the factory hunting stock. Use the ACE and UPR length of pull kit for the T3x ACE Target, T3x ACE Game, T3x UPR and T1x UPR.
