Tikka Factory Stock vs McMillan Game Warden LR — Worth the Upgrade? (7mm Rem Mag)

Swapped the factory stock on my Tikka 7mm Rem Mag for a McMillan Game Warden LR and figured I'd share how it went. Shot a couple groups with the factory stock, swapped to the McMillan, shot a couple more with the same Berger 168gr load, and just talked through what changed. Groups ended up pretty similar between the two, so this isn't really an accuracy story, it's more about fit, feel, and how each stock handled the recoil from my 7mm Rem Mag. McMillan Game Warden LR specs (Tikka T3/T3x inlet): Approx. 14" length of pull Approx. 29 oz (carbon fiber, edge fill) Negative comb designed to reduce felt recoil and mitigate muzzle rise 6° toe line for better recoil tracking and rear bag control Edge fill carbon fiber construction, built to handle magnum recoil Gear used: Tikka, 7mm Rem Mag Federal Premium Berger 168gr Hybrid Hunter McMillan Game Warden LR stock Tract riflescope If you've been going back and forth on whether a McMillan stock is worth it for your Tikka, hopefully this helps. #Tikka #McMillan #7mmRemMag #RifleStock #LongRangeHunting #CustomRifleBuild
