Machined metal mold , I would have to look at one closeup to see how it fits an action but I like the design.

Interesting. Sounds good. Looks decent. Seems to be light...

The inlet is CNC'd. Imagine it'll be a near perfect drop in, and should be for the $$.

Would be very curious to hear an actual review and see if the weight is as advertised.

Doubtful given that most actions are all over the map dimensionally.

I feel Sevens is taking the right approach. Wait until the stock has been on the market for a while and see what happens with real use instead of testing.

Just a hunch, but I'm guessing this is the same company that made the stocks for Forbes rifles. Someone posted this article a few weeks ago when Forbes went belly up....

http://www.wcsh6.com/story/news/2015/09/25/workers-titan-machine-go-without-paychecks/72826768/

It mentions their stock manufacturer in Alabama having problems getting paid. This surprised me because I live in Alabama and have never heard of anyone producing lightweight composite stocks around here. Now AG Composites pops up and they're located in....Alabama. Their stocks also look a whole lot like the one on my Forbes rifle. If so, that's a good sign as I really like that stock although $500+ puts it in the McMillan neighborhood.

It would need to cost a hell less than that for me to switch and experiment with.

I have no problems with the Edge..

Yep, drop right in, bed the lug and you'd be good to go. Sure, you could have something out of spec but that's not a fault of the inlet, which was not made custom to your rig. And if you've got a little one - maybe skim bed for a perfect fit. Point being, CNC'd inlet is superior to molded. No matter to me though, quite a few $500 rifles to be had before $500 stocks, just to shave a few ounces, LOL.

I have seen many edges but never one of these in person. I will reserve judgement until I see one of these in person.
