and the foam costs more than the case??? wtf?
You put in foam, or a softcase, as has been mentioned. the softcase has the foam.

That's the plan 
If your soft case fits loosely in the hard case, you could add cheap foam to the hard case to squeeze the soft case and prevent it from "banging" around.
IMO, in the the end you will spend a little more money then a hard case with full foam but have a much more versatile setup, that can be adapted for multiple guns fairly easily.
I don't know, sounds like a good plan to me, I'll let you know how it works out?
Anything has to be better then the DU flambeau hard case with crappy foam inside that I am using now??

especially since most soft cases are now lined with mollee so you can even put mag pouches on the outside to fill the case up... and the mollee onthe inside allows you to customize the softcase for ANY gun....
problem with a hardcase with cut foam is that then you are stuck with the cut foam.... what happens if you want to put another gun in it... buy new foam for $160
the softcase is easily configured for multiple, or frankly any gun made that fits in the length restriction, and an ar15 you can break down if it does not fit.

Hmmmm. Interesting. No way I would've thought of this, and it makes more sense all the time. Thanks for thinking outside the box (or case as it were) for the rest of us.

Pelican just bought Hardigg now:
Pelican Products has acquired Hardigg Industries, the Massachusetts based roto molding case company.
While the two companies have had a historic rivalry, on detailed review there is a much bigger synergy with Hardigg and Pelican joining forces. In fact, when you consider Pelican’s capabilities of automated injection molding, and contrast that with Hardigg’s roto molding and customization skills, it’s clear that our strengths are extremely complementary. An example of the synergy is in our selling models. Pelican has built a diverse base of distribution in commercial and industrial markets, while Hardigg has deep selling channels within the military. Clearly we can benefit by leveraging each other’s sales and distribution channels. At the same time, Pelican has mastered automated manufacturing to better support customer requirements around the world. Many of these processes will be leveraged across Hardigg’s manufacturing operations.
So what will the combined entity look like? It will employ over 1,500 people in 23 offices and 6 manufacturing facilities in 12 countries around the world. It will truly be the best source for supporting any customer’s protective case needs. In addition, we will build new advanced lighting products, so whether you’re a case or lighting customer, we will have the largest capability in the world to support your requirements. Because we are well capitalized for future growth, in just a few short years Pelican will drive to become a half a billion dollar business.
Product innovation will accelerate in this new enterprise, with more than 60 engineers developing products that will fit our new unified strategic plan, deploying new technologies and designs for the future growth of all involved. This will represent a win for our core product offering: a permanent, more efficient and effective packaging solution with sustainable advantages over corrugated boxes, wood crates, aluminum cases and other inferior containers.
I look forward to meeting and working with you all to make this new enterprise a huge success for everyone involved.
Respectfully,
Lyndon Faulkner

That's good news IMO...each system has some strengths. I have seen Hardigg cases and thought they were nice, but all my expensive optics go in Pelican, no question.
Much as I like competition, in this case I would think this would improve both products.
