Switched to an Impact action and a new foundation to fit.
Exodus Dark Distressed standard fill
Impact Action
28" kreiger heavy varm 6br chambered by paradigm gunworx
APA gen 3 lil bastard
spuhr rings
ATACR 5-25x56

the extra length/heavier barrel really balances out this rifle nicely. i need to get an exact weight - but i'm betting around 22 lb.

Looks good! Mine is similar but with a 28” no-taper truck axle and it’s just over 20 lb with a Schmidt.
Danggg!
my other origin/foundation/razor with 26” m24 was 21 I think. So I was just basing it off that. I’ll try and remember to dig my fish scale out tonight and weigh it!
I still need to pick-up a 5 rounder for it. Defiance Deviant GA Hunter medium (700 SA) magnum bolt face, Hawkins M5 DBM, PROOF 24" Sendero contour PROOF CF barrel chambered in 7 RSAUM by Sawtooth Rifles, TriggerTech Special, Vortex AMG, APA rings, switchview, and Atlas PSR. I haven't decided on a brake yet, and I'll probably run it suppressed most of the time anyways.
Gorgeous. I need to build a hunting rifle off the revelation. So awesome
Whats the weight on revelation "light"
With the Hawkins M5 bottom metal, and the 1.5″ RRS rail and picatinny adapter installed, it's 71.3oz according to my food scale.
Hey guys,
When you ordered your stock from Foundation do you spec out your barrel profile like ordering with McMillan and Manners? I'm waiting for the long action release hopefully end of Jan 2020. I plan on running an Exodus in my Deviant Tactical I'm just undecided if I'm going to run a Proof Sendero lite or Bartlein Sendero.
So for those of you running a less than straight contour how much room is there in the forend?
Thanks!

I would just message John or Amy at Foundation. They are very responsive.
The standard short action Exodus and Genesis easly fit an MTU contour. The revelation will take up to an M24 contour. THese are from my personal experience. They could give you the exact answer.

Personally, I wish they would've made any cutouts to lighten the hunter version of the stock on the interior of the stock. The cutouts they placed on the outside of the stock totally disrupt the lines of it.
I want to like it, but I just can't.

I personally like how they did it, but I get what you're saying.
Bump for some inspiration. Looking at ordering an Exodus in the natural finish for a TL3 build.
Looks great, Travis is great to work with.
Exodus - Foundation Stocks
The Foundation Exodus features a 2" forearm, close grip to trigger relation and the flexibility of having either no bag hook or bag hook.

I have the the Hawkins. Foundation has upped their game. When I bought mine he only offered two. The Hawkins and the KMW.
How do you like the Hawkins? How is the fit in the stock? I’ve only used Badger. Trying to decide on an inlet.
features is personal preference...what machining quality issues have you seen with Hawkins? I guess i've not had anything but good luck with it and machining quality is much better than some of the others I've tried at the same or even more of a price point.
The only issue I had with the Hawkins metal is some sharp edges and 10 minutes with a small file took care of that.
Does anyone know if the genesis standards have the relief cuts in the barrel channel or is that just for the light? Thinking about ordering one then adding the weight kit to it from the PX thread.
The Genesis has honeycomb in the barrel channel and light version has more of slots cut into it.
So I did a thing to my Foundation MG2 .... custom ordered some super heavy tungsten weights for it. 
Not that I need them but where and how much out of curiosity? That's gonna be a heavy bitch lolSo I did a thing to my Foundation MG2 .... custom ordered some super heavy tungsten weights for it.

Oh yea, it's a heavy rifle for sure now. I do like how the balance point is shifted forward though, very handy for barricade shooting.
I ordered from one of the big tungsten suppliers, had to give them the specs and dimensions then long lead time for them to produce it. It ended up being $300 for the full set, but I had to order multiple kits in order to get that price point. I've got a couple extra kits if anyone is interested.
I just told you I didn't need these but when you tell me you have extra I suddenly feel like I do I have exodus stocks though. The holes aren't as deep right?
Correct, I think the Exodus is a totally different inlet size/shape.
I have an Exodus and can confirm - holes are six sided (Not round like those shown) on mine.
how do those stay in? How much for a kit?

If anyone knows anyone with one of the tungsten kits they don’t want, let me know.
Also, here’s a pic of the newest offering from foundation, the “centurion.”
Is the grip more vertical?
I absolutely love mine...super comfortable! Not to mention the customer service is fantastic and super responsive. Great group of people over there...not one complaint...except that I don’t have two of them...yet

Send me a PM and I’ll give you the details to order from the same manufacturer that I did.
Been very happy with how mine is running.
It’s basically the same grip as the revelation. And they squared up the sides of the forend.
Prior to this, I couldn’t get a proper trigger press with the genesis and exodus. This solves that.
