Badger action in Manners mini chassis?

[Swift]

I'm trying to actually plan a build for once instead of going off the cuff. I'll be building on a LA M2008, 300wm. I've used Manners in the past and I really like their mini chassis so I'd like to use them again, this time with their TF4.

According to Badger, the M2008 can be fit to most 700 stocks but I'm not sure about the mini chassis with the Badger being a flat bottom receiver and all. Can anyone shed some light on this?

I was told a limited number of them were made and are no longer going to be in production because of machining time, but I saw one the other day at a match and it was very new?

I'll have to shoot Tom a pm. He only referenced the SA in that thread.

Manners has only made short action mini chassis. They don't / wont make one for the long action Badger (I asked about one for my rifle). They don't advertise the Badger Mini Chassis either.

I just built a 6.5 CM on a Badger SA and Manners T4 with the Mini Chassis. It was a brand new mfg stock.

I was afraid of that. So compromises...SA in something like 300wsm or stick with la and krg/aics. I'm pretty firm on building off a Badger.

We went ahead and got some in the works just for the badger 2008 long actions, they will take the CIP AImags. I should have the first ones in my hands in about 3 weeks. They will retail the same as the others. THank you
