Foundation Weight Installation
- Thread starter 12qwas

I used blue painters tape and wrapped around the weights a couple times to make a press fit. Of course if you don’t have a center hole tapped and threaded on them then it’ll be tough to pull out
I was hoping to not need interior weights at all, and I bought one of the heaviest arca rails I could find to try to make it happen:

I ended up learning what I think several people already know, that the Foundation stocks are very tail heavy. So even with a somewhat beefy barrel profile and that extra heavy rail, I still needed internal weights to get the balance where I wanted it. At the end of the day I went with these weights for a variety of reasons (could be purchased individually, hex shape, o-ring, tapped).

I needed full tungsten weights to get mine to ballance out. Silicone glue works.
Once they are in there, there is no reason to take them out.

I thought the O-Ring was supposed to be enough to hold them in so that you don't need any extra adhesive
