Manners LRH Discussion

When companies put SA actions in LA magwells it messes up the CoG balance shooting off the ARCA plat or GC. So I'll bet that's why you are seeing this now where they are just building the magwell-shroud as far back as possibele (as you note, for the SA) and saying fk'it with how it looks on the LA. The industry used to often do it the other way, but people started complaining (eg Vision chassis Gen-1 as an example).
The LRH was originally designed for SA only. They had so many requests for LA they ended up inletting a couple and people were fine with the way it looked so they started selling them as is.
I ordered one Jan 10 and just got notified it will be done in 2 weeks
Anyone seen / tried the new sport comp yet? I’m between this and the foundation Ezekiel.
It looks like the standard LRH w/ a full length arca rail… am I missing anything?
I’ve not been behind the Ezekiel so I cannot compare, but my LRH w/ full length arca rail that I installed is awesome (great size, weight, balance, etc.) in the field.
Why don’t you just get a MCS TCS and remove the weights. Mine was 14.5lbs in a TCS with bipod. That was from 12lbs in a LRH. This is a fully loaded rifle 5 rounds, bipod, scope and muzzle break.
I would, but I'm old, cheap, and don't want to spend the money on another stock JUST to use weights off of it.
Maybe buy a 360 precision TCS steel rail or a manners TCS Max steel rail and add it to your LRH. Be a bit weird, but it should work. I think the 360 rail is about 40oz and the manners TCS Max rail is about the same, plus you can add an additional nose weight to the TCS Max rail if you want.
Not sure how the lightly built LRH will like a heavy rail hanging off the front, but it's something you could try.

The 360 rail will fit the LRH? Good to know since I was planning on calling them this week about some machining work.
It won't fit out of the box, but you could add some t nuts in the fore end and make it fit. Not sure if the front most holes will end up in the stock though, you might have to drill and counterbore a new hole an inch or two back.
Manners offers a full length rail for the LRH but it's aluminum and light and won't do what you have in mind.
Anything you add is probably going to need new inserts added to your fore end as you're trying to turn your LRH into something manners never intended.
That's not the first time I've heard that. I'm guessing I'm going to have to suck up the extra recoil from my 6.5prc.
Honestly, with some people complaining the regular TCS is too butt heavy with anything less than a straight contour barrel, and manners making the TCS Max with a lighter fill in the butt, lighter buttpad hardware, a micro chassis, and more weight up front to shift the balance, your light LRH with a heavy steel rail up front might end up balancing quite well, but a bit on a light side.
If you wanted a quick sanity check go buy a steel bar about the same dimensions as an arca rail and tape it up front to see how it handles and balances. 1.5 x 0.125 stock is cheap and the correct width, and stack 3 or 4 of them to get a good approximation of the weight of the 360 or TCS Max rail.

Before I found this thread I was thinking about getting some Buckshot and just gorilla gluing it into the forearm.
