Manners composite stocks

About to start a build on one, and hoping to get some feedback.
It’ll be a Defiance action sitting in an EH1 or LRH
Anybody got experience with either?

You’ll get a little bit better feedback with snipershide or rokslide on this. Probably a few folks here with a manners on a custom action but a lot more there. You’re not gonna go wrong with anything they have if you’ve made the decision to go aftermarket on a stock, they’re top of the line and it gets into Chevy vs ford vs chassis.

I’ve had two. Top notch.

I do not have one but manners are some of the best made.
ETA: if you look on snipers hide you may be able to find a used one if you’d like to save a little. Manners hold their value very well though.
And before you buy, make sure you have the correct bottom metal.

Isn’t like a one year wait to get one?
Posted on 4/20/24 at 7:57 am to brightside878
I've Manners and McMillan fiberglass stocks, never had one of their carbon fiber stocks though. I went to a chassis, but if a lefty Manners/McMillan ever go up for sale, I'd definitely consider going back.
The stocks are top notch. There is a guy selling some brand new lrh I believe. He's on longrangehunting for sure, I believe snipershide as well.
Which defiance action are you going to use?

I’ve owned 7-8 Manners stocks and still have one - carbon fiber PRS1. Tom makes a very nice stock that feels great ergonomically. Only draw back is lead time for a custom order. Delivery is close to a year. If you’re not picky about color combinations and various finishes, you can find a used stock, or new stock at various retailers / websites with no wait.
Manners got stupid busy because of 2 reasons. Kelblys quit making rifle socks, and McMillan sold out to a greedy new owner that increased stock prices by 40%. The normally priced $599 custom built hunting stock will cost you $850. Huge disappointment since I’ve owned over 50 McM stocks since 1987. Below are a few of my stocks. Will be glad to answer any questions for the OP or others.

Yeah they’re not easy to find in stock. The shop I’m working with has a bunch of them, and they’re really high on the LRH. I didn’t like the look initially, but it’s quickly grown on me. Wish the fore end covered a little more than the barrel though.
I’m going with a Ruckus GA Hunter

Didn’t know that about McMillan, Blaze. I may give you a call before I send a deposit for something
Thanks as always

I had a cooper with a manners stock. Top notch. You will be happy
Posted on 4/20/24 at 11:23 am to saintsfan1977
I waited 10 months on my latest. I’ve also bought used.

You need my contact info … cell ? I’ll find you a stock that will meet your needs. Back in 2016 I designed the arctic camo that was introduced by Manners at the SHOT show. I ordered a custom T4A and the camo splotches over the white carbon fiber were the wrong color. I waited 9 months and got the wrong color finish …. I sold the stock since it wasn’t what I ordered. Tom would have made it right but I said Phuket.

That's why I didn't get one. I looked for used but couldn't find the one I wanted and I didn't want to wait that long. They are nice but for the money and the wait I got something else.

I got a LRH last year for a defiance ruckus and love it. I messaged a guy from a forum and he had one even though his site showed out of stock. Mountic Outdoors

I just bought a Foundation stock. They quoted me 3 months but ended up only taking 1 and a half.

Nice! What barrel’d you go with?
I’m gonna have this one done in 300 wm

They’re #1 for me. Fantastic stocks

I went with a proof barrel. Shoots ridiculous

Bump … J , tried sending you an email and cell phone text messages. Not sure they went through. Update: I found you a Manners EH1 stock, custom action, and PROOF barrel priced right. Email me and I’ll give you the 411 on all the details and prices
