New Manners pro pack folder

Looking forward to this. Steep on the price, but I guess it makes sense with trying to compete with MDT/XLR.
 
I'm thinking this with a bumblebee in it will make me happy.
The bumblebee inlet is flat bottom. The folder on the manners is built into the mini chassis(which is for a round 700 clone). Milling that mini chassis to accept the bumblebee will be a chore, possibly compromising the integrity. I'd prob opt for a Vesper or another round bottom lightweight action.
 
Hopefully they have enough meat to pull it off.....if not, I will be happy with a Borden.
 
These are pretty badass. I have been looking really hard at a folder, specifically the Hunt 26 and Element but now I have to add this in to the mix!
 
With and without cheek piece.

Similar vertical grip, but I am not a Manners guy.

Folds to the right and under the bolt. It folds under the bolt right behind the grip in front of where the combo starts.
Im curious how well it will fit various actions having the bolt handle lay right in the wrist dip (my name) of the stock like that?

Would seem to be sensitive to bolt handle position, angle, size, ect…

I want one!
 
They also said a tikka version will likely happen but didn’t speculate any timeframe
Spoke with Matt yesterday. Bit of a different message. I won't quote him on here from a private conversation, but suffice to say the Tikka version is not on any roadmap right now. I asked about accelerating that, and he said their MOQ is 400/yr + mold costs. Unfortunate since I'm very interested in the short nature and fold-to-bolt elements of this particular design.
