rear bag rider

Gold $$ Contributor
Looking for a rear bag rider for my Tikka T3x original stock. Does anyone have any idea's on who makes one or a home made one ?
 
I took my stock to a local, small machine shop and had him make exactly as I wanted for a few bucks.
 
I made mine from aluminium, and to suit my CZ457 (with Oryx chassis).
Hand made with a hacksaw, 1/2 round file, and a drill.
Took maybe 2 or 3 hours once I figured out the shape, etc (I copied the plastic spacer for the rear plate shape).
Original plan had a round stainless steel bar, but have since changed to a 'wedge' shaped aluminium one.
Polished the alloy using a felt wheel mounted in my wee drill press.
It is certainly possible to make your own with just a few tools.
I prefer the wedge shape as it fits into the Protektor rear bag better than the round bar did.
Both slider bars shown (wedge and round).
If it helps anyone with a general design I'll include my drawings for the CZ457...which will give some ideas as to sizes, etc.
