iota Outdoors just debuted the KRUX – a new lightweight, low-profile composite rifle stock ready for back country rifle builds.
The KRUX is a compact 28” in length and at just 27 ounces, still maintains the appropriate structure to accommodate a standard Sendero profile barrel.
The key to the KRUX’s weight-to-structure ratio is its carbon fiber reinforced composite mold that maximizes the rifle stock’s strength under compression of a fully equipped rifle. Custom machined pillars maintain proper action and bottom metal dimensions, reducing stock fatigue and maintaining accuracy.
“Most ultralight stocks are only inletted for a sporter barrel profile. The problem with that is you give up repeatability in order to drop weight,” commented president of iota, Derrick Ratliff, “The KRUX is built to be sturdy enough to run a full profile barrel without compromising the integrity of the stock, maintaining accuracy over repeated shooting, and in a design that’s never been seen before.”
The KRUX is hand laid for premium quality and is available in three standard molded in colors – Citadel Grey (shown), Sentinel Green and Gobi Tan. MSRP for the KRUX is $529.99.
