I'll be sanding my notch out and finishing with epoxy. I don't plan on ever selling this stock, and I'm not picky with things like that. All my rifles are tools that get used hard.

Mine also get used and am not worried about that. I just want things to look professionally done and don't like things to look bubba'd. I can handle an EH bolt notch cutout and make it look like factory. This molded notch... eh... I'm skittish. I've got a Defiance Anti build and will try it in the LRH and move the Origin as mentioned.

Oh and just to mention, this stock going back twice - It had a chip in it from shipping. Manners took care of it and added some flush cups and rail for me. They were great. I just didn't have the action to test fit until after and timing was off for me to mention it to them on the other shipments. Didn't want that to seem negative to them.

Was the bolt handle interference due to the width of the handle itself or the knob? Not sure if you happened to take any pictures. I’ve got a ruckus with the thicker of the two handle options I was thinking of putting into this stock but I’m wondering if it’ll have the same issues.

Thanks, you're planning to put an RRS universal rail on it?

I meant to take a picture of all three spacers with the screw, but I forgot before it out it back on. Those two in the picture are 1/8" each.

Here's a better picture of the gap between the stock and the arca rail, which is a much cleaner fit on the short actions.

Hi tak
Did you have a chance to photo with a bottom metal in?

it's with my smith now, I didn't have a long action bottom metal laying around, I'll update when I get it back, shouldn't be too long, the stock was the last piece remaining

FWIW this is what it looks like after spending 10 mins with some 80grit sandpaper wrapped around a stick. Bolt handle clears easily and with the molded in color doesn't look bad at all.

I’ve had my LRH for over a month and heres some thoughts.

You’re not wrong on the pros category. It’s light for its’ features. I love the ease of a mini chassis as well as the versatility of the barrel channel. The arca sits at the balance point, which is where you would hold a rifle when carrying so the comfort/blocky thing is moot.

The grip things a little hard to explain. An EH-1 grip is definitely workable for me but I prefer a little less distance. Even though they measure about the same the LRH feels better. I think this is because of how they molded in the thumb shelf. In other threads it was mentioned setting back the inlet, this is a thing with Manners, but I didn’t ask so I don’t know about this stock. The mag well/arca junction might be a problem.

I can’t compare to the magnus, I’ve only monkeyed with a verdict briefly. That said the LRH is definitely my favorite lightish stock right now.

21” barrel for reference

Going to pick up one of these eventually (and put the full length Sawtooth R-Lock rail on it) for hunting. I shouldn't have sold my EH1A originally.
