It is integrated into the buttstock, so that it does not increase the length of pull. So you would need to get a new buttstock for the existing chassis.

We don't have a confirmed timeline right now but should have something in the Spring.
It is on the radar and we are talking about it, hopefully we will have something by the summer.
Excellent. I'll watch for it. Appreciate your time. ��
Hello Ryan,
Just a question regarding scope mounting and choosing rings.
So, the distance between the yellow lines remains the same regardless of the length of fore-end you choose (12", 15" or 18")?
If so, what is that dimension?
In looking at the lower photo of the Nightforce SHV mounted on the rifle, there would not be any room for a sunshade, unless you mounted taller rings?
The scope I am planning on installing is a 335mm (13.2 inches) in length, 34mm tube and 50mm objective. What height rings do you recommend?

The 12" forend will give you about 6" of exposed barrel, the 15" and 18" forends are the same which is about 8 3/8" of exposed barrel (measured from the recoil lug).
I had been running a Bushnell Elite 6500 4.5-30x50 with 30mm tube and it fit with the 18" forend with the sunshade. I switched out to a Burris XTRII 5-25x50 with 34mm tube and wasn't able to run the sunshade comfortably. I could have made it work but I wanted to run the scope caps so went without sunshade.
So the question would be how far does your scope stick out from the recoil lug? If it fits into those dimensions, get it as low as you can to the barrel. If it's longer, you'll want to get higher up and clear that forend. If you wanted to get higher you can also use the ESS high scope base to help raise you up too.
We are looking at late March to early April to have them shipping.
Probably a silly question but....what are the options for attaching a sling? I have slings that already have Uncle Mikes hardware for attaching to studs. I see the fore-end has one stud but are the other options for the front and rear.

^^^^ Ya I agree.
I'm just new to the whole M-Lok idea. So, forgive my ignorance.
Are the areas circled in red designed to accept QD mounts?
Edit: Looks like I found my answer

I will leave my post to help anyone else who has the same question.

Any updates on the folder or the 13round mags?
Do you have a estimate on price?
The price will be $79.99 for the 13 Round magazine, and the ESS Folder will be $200 more than the non-folding stock.
Hi MDT
I currently own an ESS for Savage 10, and am eyeballing the Ultimatum action.
As i could just spin the IBI barrel off my savage and tight it right back on a nice receiver.
I am currently planning my budget to know when this will happen.
Can you guys sell me ESS receiver only, as in i keep my current handguard and buttstock?
This would help me realise this project sooner than later

Yes, you can purchase just the base from MDT and keep the current handgaurd and buttstock. You will need to message us at support@mdttac.com
Thank you for the quick reply, much appreciated!
