bipod mounting on synthetic stock

[Alex]

I have a fx royale with a synthetic stock and i wanted to know if there was any special studs for the synthetic stocks or if i can just install a regular one?

Thanks, Alex

Any type of threading screw (with tip) would work. Simple and easy!

I went the "simple and easy" route mounting an Atlas rail on the synthetic stock of my FX Bobcat, but when I tightened the screw-in bolts enough to eliminate the wobble of the rail the screws tore out of the composite. I ended up (1) removing the stock; (2) using a Forstner bit in a drill press to drill flat-bottomed holes from the top of the stock; (3) drilling the rest of the way through the stock with a 1/8th inch bit; (4) using T-nuts to receive the rail bolts. Eighteen months later it's still solid as a rock.

I used 10-24 heli coils on my FX Bobcat .
