There's something about an owner of a company sitting in an interview fully detailing and explaining his product. It gives the consumer a great deal of confidence in their purchase.
I have a Foundation Centurion Dark Distressed stock on my Vudoo that I use for ABRA Outlaw competition. It's the most awesome and best-looking stock I have ever owned; would not trade it for anything else. 👍🏼
I have been watching your videos for quite a while but you have started moving your videos more to high-end builds. I'm an old retired dude who wants to see more projects built. I have a Ruger American in 308 that I have started building with an MDT Field stock, Odin muzzle brake, and some bolt upgrades. I would think, some of your viewers would like to see you do similar types of builds with a budget rifle.
I have a Genesis 2 dark distressed in 6.5 prc 26” and a Revelation natural in 6.5 creed 20”!!! Love them both but I’m about to plan my next build on Samson in black and brass! Just have to figure out where to go with it..
McMillan, MDT, Manners, and any other quality match grade stock is the price of a Foundation or more! If you want to have a good rifle you need a solid platform from the stock, action, and barrel. To make it shoot good you need good brass and bullets
I would like to put together a hunting rig That is very heavy. I'm a big guy and I can take whatever recoil you've got. But i'd like to have an all-purpose rifle, with a heavy hitting cartridge like a .338 And simply use a good sling perhaps even a backpack strap style carrying system. I was in the United States Army and carrying a bunch of weight around is not that big of a deal. I would prefer to have a heavy rifle and simply eat cold food. The argument about ounces of weight only counts if there was a version of hunting that was an olympic sport.
If you don’t see why this stock is worth the high price tag- and has a LONG wait to get one- then it’s simply not for you. I’m a bit surprised to see so much hate in the comments here because it really just reflects a lot of ignorance. A McMillan F class stock is $850 and that’s with NO INLET. You’ll pay a smith another $500 to inlet and bed the thing and have something that MIGHT be as good as the Foundation. An AI chassis is $2500 for just the chassis. If it wasn’t worth it, people wouldn’t pay it.
I feel like these guys will build a 20lbs front heavy 22lr for an off hand match because they're masochists. Heaven forbid that you match the build to what you are doing.
It would be nice if you dropped the price range into the first 30 seconds so I can go ahead and close the video because there is no way I'm paying that much for a stock... I could probably buy a chunk of material, a CNC router, and software license for what these cost....
Then do it. We’d all love to have a Foundation available at half the price. Yet with all the years they have been in business, where is the competitor? Maybe it’s not as easy as you think it is.
A typical factory rifle costs less to far less than this stock. Why would someone spend $700 on a Remington 700 and then drop $1200 on a stock for it? You're supposed to spend twice as much on the optic, not the stock. But the fact of the matter is that there are some very decent optics that cost less than a Remington 700 so I can't possible see spending twice as much on the stock as the rifle. Further, it just doesn't make sense when there are a lot of very good chassis out there for much much less. I'm sure it's a good product but for just a stock, the price is over the top.
@cplskiusmc5654 Different Strokes for Different Folks. Some will prefer this route while others will prefer to go in a different direction such as a chassis; a hybrid stock/chassis; a laminate stock with a full aluminum bedding block or spline; a stock with aluminum pillars or something like a McMillian or GRS with no bedding at all. It's just an additional option for a specific price point. Additionally, most people who'll consider these stocks likely aren't buying them for "factory" Remington 700s or lower end Bergaras but for the more expensive custom and semi-custom Remington 700 clones.
Foundation’s target market are for folks dropping in a $1400 impact action. bighorn or defiance custom action with a bartlein/krieger barrel chambered in the latest flavor of 6mm for PRS/NRL matches. An impact 737R barreled action only can be north of $2300, and that’s without a trigger, brake, bottom metal, and a mag.
“Spend twice as much on the optic” … twice as much of what? The typical Foundation stock owner is spending 2-4 times the cost of this stock on optics. Never came across anyone in this target market running a factory R700 action. All (custom) 700 clones.
@@rte65hg That's the point. People who spend thousands and thousands of dollars on a rifle would buy a stock like this. There aren't that many guys out there like that so there won't be that many sales of these stocks will there? Most people buying guns are average blue collar guys who can't spend half a year's mortgage payments on a rifle with a $1220 stock so Foundation needs to make a stock at a reasonable price if they want to sell a lot more of them. Besides, a smart and skilled guy can take a $400 dollar factory rifle off the rack and with some work bench gunsmithing and tailored hand loads he can make it shoot better than many customs. These Foundation stocks aren't a Ferrari, they're a Ford wearing lipstick with some street corner marketing. If you wanna get screwed, that's one way to do it I guess.

And if you call the company he will chat with you also. Great products and amazing company
Been running a Genesis 2 for about a year. Nothing compares
F-Class (Open and FTR) please! - There is a severe lack of proper FTR stocks being made!

Who’s bottom metal did you use I’m going to put a foundation on my vudoo build
@@michaelliechty9906 I used Vudoo's own bottom metal.
You forgot the discount code & link. 🤩

This is definitely one I have been looking for!! Keep up the good work.

Does Foundation have any plan for an F-Class stock?
I wish they would offer an inlet for Tikka.
Awesome looking stocks!
Wish they had some more economical line. Not all of us can afford these.
You can't afford these, we can, don't group us with you.

I am surprised they dont inlet for savage precision actions.
They market to the competition world. Savage is only a player for the shooters they pay.

Will i be able to put a Tikka T3 7mm Rem Mag in the stock?
I think olive drab micarta would look good..
The very best stocks in the market!!!!!

Do they make one for ruger m77mk2 rifles with an adjustable comb?
Sure, sure, sure, sure, sure
do any models have a parallel foreend to the action?
Do they make stocks for tikka actions?
If firearms is heavy ? Work out . M1 weighed 11 1/4 . pounds .

How many commercials are you gonna do for these guys
way too expensive. Cost is comparable to carbon fiber...

Go be poor someplace else
Others afford these, that's not our problem. It's yours.

@@Levidanielz what gets me is that most of the people complaining about the price tag probably have much newer and more expensive cars than I do.
@G5Hohn exactly. Sais the stocks are too expensive. Has a 90,000$ diesel truck with a 30' camper behind it.
