My TR rifle in a tube stock that I built as a prototype. Front sight is also a prototype that I have been testing. Rear sight is a Centra because every time that I build a rear sight for myself someone has to buy it. It currently has one of my sights fitted. Seems to work ok. Group was shot with my sight.

[font=Georgia]Does the rear assembly/butt stock rotate and come off to remove the bolt?
I have an Eliseo R5 with a Pierce tube action that is how it works. Bit of a nuisance as club requires bolt removal rather that just a bore flag before removing rifle off the mound...
Worth it though, shoots like a demon.
Terrific group at 700 mt...! I cleaned F Open last week at 400 and have cleaned 600yd but scoped of course...

Apologies for the late reply.
No the lower has a locking lever.

1. Unlock
2. Pull butt to rear.
3. Pivot assembly down.
4. Remove bolt.
5. Pivot up.
6. Push butt forward.
7. Lock.
