You just pin it like this. No knots to tie etc.

yeah just fold the ends round artistically and pin.

This is how I've always done it, but I've never been sure it's right as it doesn't look like a tied stock. The term "ready tied" gives the impression that it should look like the tied ones.

they should really be called “don’t have to tie them like regular stocks” stock. But no they don’t really bear any resemblance to a properly tied stock.

Some are more better than others, some are a bit flat looking or they deliberately don't look like a normal self-tie stock but you can definitely get ones that look realistic.

I bought a ready tied stock, I thought it would be easy but I couldn’t get it right, it always looked weird. I find an ordinary one less faff 😊

I’m not a fan and dont see why they are easier tbh… like ready tied bow ties they never look quite right to me.
