MLRTYME's Review of S2Delta RS-C Complete Remington Model 700 Aluminum Rifle Stock
I have owned the RS-CH (Heavy) chassis for 3 months and have mounted my Bergara Premier 6GT barreled action for PRS shooting. The goal was a sub $2000 rifle that shot right along with my uncle's $10k rig. Having shot for 3 matches now, I feel confident in saying that the chassis is a great option for those wanting all the adjustability of an MDT or MPA, but not the price tag. The chassis has been in cold/drizzle, dry/cold, and warm/humid air and the bolts are still tight and everything functions as it should. It mounted to my barreled action smoothly without any hassles. Using poly MDT magazines (AICS), I have had zero issues with feed issues other magazine-related concerns. Built-in ARCA rail is nice.
Shooting bipod and rear bag, bipod only, off a bag only, it performed very well in all scenarios. I had heard statements that the chassis flex was a problem for the fore end, but I did not have any issues cleaning multiple stages for the first time with this rifle...using that chassis. I did add 3 sets of weights to the side, and that helped add some needed heft to keep pace with the higher-priced units that start a bit heavier. The thumb rest was nice and I while I toyed with making a grip adjustment, I found the stock grip to be more than adequate and easy to get accustomed to.
That one caveat...the cheek-rest. Due to my height and abnormally long arm length, I run a longer LOP than most at the competitions. I also have very high cheekbones and finding stocks that work have always been a challenge. This cheek rest was very wide and flat at the top and did not run the length of the buttstock. Trying this dug into my face during each shot in initial testing. For a normal person with a standard LOP, and perhaps a more normal set of cheekbones, this could be a good option. For me, it was a deal-breaker. I ended up purchasing a piece of 1.25" round carbon fiber tube (cut in 1/2 lengthwise), cut the center section out of the existing cheek rest (to make mounting my new frankenrest to the buttstock assembly easier), and epoxied the carbon fiber 'half tube' to the old mounting assembly as a replacement to not only provide a less obtrusive cheek rest, but also was able to extend the cheekrest 2.5 inches further to the rear to accommodate my LOP. Other companies may make a cheekrest replacement, I don't know. But with my comfort level working carbon, I found the modification to be easy. I'm sure someone with a 3D printer (or a friend with one) could have made the same thing w/o too much hassle.
As a side note, my uncle has shot this rifle and compared it to his rig directly. When he discovered I paid under $450 shipped to the door, and another $100 in weights...total, he was very surprised. The term 'steal' was his exact wording.
