2. Carefully insert receiver or barreled action into the Rifle CompStock. Carefully align
recoil lug and trigger with corresponding pockets or openings. Slowly lower barreled
action into forend until it is fully seated. (Fig. 2) Note: The barreled action should slide
into position with limited hand pressure and when in final position there should very
minimal movement.
NOTE: Utilizing sandpaper and Dremmel tool, barrel channel may be relieved to
increase float.
3. While holding the assembly from Step 2, reinstall the magazine housing into the cor-
responding pocket on the bottom of the receiver. (Fig. 3) Note: To avoid damage to the
hinged floor plate and trigger guard in the following steps, the magazine housing must
be correctly installed in the receiver. Verify that the magazine housing is properly
installed.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: During recoil, the Rifle moves rearward by slightly more than one inch.
It is not necessary to pull the stock tightly into your shoulder. Instead, take a firm but not too tight
a hold of the pistol grip and set the butt solidly into the pocket of your shoulder. This will allow the
recoil reduction mechanisms to function most effectively. Do not pre-compress the stock.
WARNING: Due to the inherent “travel” of the firearm during recoil, a scope without prop-
er eye relief will come back and hit you! As with any rifle, be sure to allow liberal eye relief to pre-
vent an injury and do not let anyone shoot your firearm without checking for proper eye clear-
ance. (See image below)
NOTE: When using BLACKHAWK! Stocks in conjunction with bipod accessories, it is advisable to
keep the weak hand back at least an inch from the rear of the bipod mount. This precaution will
avoid the possibility of recoil impact on the fore part of the weak hand. (See image below)
