Boyds At-One Stock Review: The Modular, Adjustable Stock that Fits a Tight Budget

I’m amazed that a sportsman can buy this much flexibility and comfort for so little money. The Boyds At-One stock purports to handle all kinds of use: prone, bench, and offhand. Can it handle all these situations?
COUPON CODE = REGRESS for big discounts on my favorite Bluetooth earbud hearing protectors: bit.ly/3AimpBg
Check out this video of our recent test of the Boyds At-One. We shot a moving target from 100 yards to 600 yards from standing, sitting, and prone positions: • Boyds At-One Stock & F...
In these initial tests, the Boyds laminate stock handled different scenarios with ease. Owners can quickly adjust the cheek riser and buttpad to fit their individual dimensions. This means that a an aftermarket At-One can quickly reconfigure to fit any one of your family members or friends. It also means that you don't have to contort your body to get your eye behind the scope when you swing up to take a cold shot.
The At-One ships with hunter-style pistol grip panels and a slim forearm. If you plan on firing from a bench or in the prone position, I recommend that you buy a pair of the more vertical target grips. Boyds shaped them to include more palm swell, and in testing we found that the more vertical angle did its job of relieving tension in the user's hand, wrist, and forearm. Other optional parts for the replacement stock include an overmolded rubber beavertail forearm panel, a Picatinny monopod panel for the bottom, and two specialized buttpad extensions. The first can extend length-of-pull to a whopping 15.5", and the second can be adjusted vertically to better adapt to prone work.
Don't just take my word for it! Listen to what two of my guest testers said about the At-One afterward.
Many thanks to guest testers Corey, Dallas, Jesse, and Kedrick, and thanks again to Patrons of the Destructive Arts! If you would like to help us produce more review videos like this, just a buck a month can go a long way! / thesocialregressive

@vlaricshard2 6 лет назад

Sorry if you answered this somewhere else ,but how much does a stock affect accuracy on its own? How much improvement should I expect from restocking say a savage axis or ruger American.?

@SocialRegressive 6 лет назад

I get this question often, and I'm curious myself. I plan to test various states of stock on the upcoming 12FV build project. First, the plastic stock. Second, a laminate stock. Third, with the laminate stock bedded. It will be difficult to do a true apples-to-apples comparison, but I want to see what happens.

@spraynpray 6 лет назад

Different positions and bipod loading on a poor stock can change your point of impact drastically. A superior stock will shoot more similarly position-to-position. A stiffer stock will be less affected by different bipod loadings, meaning how hard you are pushing against the bipod. Ergonomic changes, such as getting a cheek weld, will remove parallax error and help you be more consistent. So for example, if you always shoot offhand at the same range in the same conditions, it may not matter at all. If you shoot prone with a bipod, or are trying for extreme accuracy, it may be very beneficial. It's hard to quantify, because under perfect conditions and with an extremely consistent shooter, there may not be enough difference to justify the expense. A journeyman shooter will see an accuracy increase in a good stock over a tupperware stock common on budget rifles today. I consider it difficult to get an Axis or American to shoot much better than MOA with the OEM stock. However, these modern actions and barrels are good, and I would expect much better with a stiffer, more ergonomic stock in the types of shooting I do. For me, it's huge. I have one rifle in an aluminum chassis that I fire prone, and the largest group it has given me at 100 yards, during load development, was 0.26" and most groups are around 0.10-0.13". I would not be able to pull that off with a flimsy stock, without a solid cheekweld, etc. Everything has to be right for me to do anything like that. To me, going from 1 MOA to 0.25 MOA is a huge improvement, and I'm willing to pay for it.

@gruanger 6 лет назад

Interesting anecdote from me. I have a weatherby vanguard series 2 6.5 creedmoor with a flimsy stock. I had more than a 2moa height difference in impact when I attached a bipod. After I filled it with fiberglass, glass bedded it and free floated it, the difference disappeared when attaching the bipod. I would definitely recommend upgrading stocks or filling in the synthetic stocks since they are flimsy, flex and twist.

@michaelchovanes6033 6 лет назад

I performed a crude test to get a ballpark of what kind of accuracy a stock upgrade might give: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-oh_K_eVNcKs.html It's on a Tikka T3 and it's using Core Lokt ammo, but I think there is still something to be gleaned from it.

@fnkdtnk 5 лет назад

From a savage axis or ruger american, your rifle will probably not bcome anymore accurate. Those are both modern rifles, with cheap, but well made stocks that shouldn’t change your rifles harmonics in varying positions or climates. You, on the other hand, will likely be able to shoot the rifle better due to a more ergonomic stock that is adjusted to your ideal length of pull, cheek riser height etc. if you went and grabbed grandpa’s 1970 rem 700 and put this stock on it, then the rifle itself would likely shoot better because old school stocks put pressure on the barrel and action.

@mr-una-polo-getic8681 2 года назад

Just finished my install this past weekend on the At 1 thumb hole stock. Lighter than expected and install was easy. Yet to fire the firearm since installing but first impression is very good. Installed on Ruger American 6.5 CM for my wife’s deer rifle. Also we got the laser engraving of the deer skull on it. If you order one please do yourself a favor and order the metal trigger guard at the same time. It’s a nice upgrade and it will ship with the gun stock and one shipping cost.

Thank you for this video! My dad ordered one of these and we were struggling with the butt stock button as no matter how hard we pressed it wouldn't go, watching this video I was able to confirm that the button was meant to be pressed in and just needed to be broken in. He used a small hammer to tap the button and it worked!

@SocialRegressive 11 месяцев назад

That button goes from nigh- impossible to very difficult as it breaks in. 💪

@a.s.7386 4 года назад

Glad you like that stock. I bought one for my 1022. I won't call it junk, but it's not far from that. I don't care at all for all the sharp angles all over it, you referred to them as creases. On mine, wherever plastic and wood mate up there are gaps, some as much as 1/8 inch. The adjustable parts. . . They have never broken in the way you claim they will. I have taken them out and lightly sanded the obvious rubbing points, lubricated them, still it's a two handed operation to get them to move. When they do move, you're just as likely to yank it out as to have it move to where you want it.When they are collapsed all the way the buttons are not in their natural flush position and if you move them so the buttons are flush you end up with a huge gap. And here's the kicker -- They shipped it with the wrong escutcheon installed. When I was finally able to reach their customer service, they basically said they'd mail me the right one. Fix it yourself. After all that, I admit it does look nice. From a distance.

Best review of a boyds stock I've found. Thank you!

@spraynpray 6 лет назад

I'm very interested in this Boyd's At-One due to the ability to swap from prone bits to offhand bits, the optional long LOP hardware, the adjustability, and their huge selection of inlets. I am in love with the CZ 527 and they offer stocks for it. Fantastic.

@longdarn 6 дней назад

Did you notice as I did that the length of pull adjustment was short.? Meaning, that max length of pull when adjusted as far out as possible was about 14 1/2”. Which is where I’m at. So if your length of pull is longer you may want to order accordingly from Boyd’s. Thanks for the review! It swayed me to choose this stock for a Mauser 98 in 30-06. Love it so far.

I came to within a hairs breadth of buying an At One Stock, but brought a Choate tactical stock instead, as it was slightly cheaper and I didn’t have to wait 6 weeks to get it. The Choate tactical stock isn’t as modular but it does have a full length aluminium bedding block with a wide beaver tail fore end and a vertical pistol grip. So far it’s performing very well, my Remington 700 SPS tactical is now grouping just under .75 MOA

@leeeng478 3 года назад

I am glad i saw this review. The deal was killed when I learned the LOP adjustment went from 12" to 14". I am 6 foot 6 my Lop is 16" my wife is about 13" lop and she is 5 foot 4 inch's tall. 12 is an extremely short lop!!! That's shorter than the lop on youth rifles. Standard LOP out the door is about 13.75. I will order my stock custom lop cut

@SocialRegressive 3 года назад

You can buy a longer butt extender on their accessories page. That plus a thicker pad should get you to 16". It adds a fair bit to the price, though.

Absolutely beautiful stock. Which makes for a beautiful rifle especially if the Stocks fits meaning fits the shooter then it become is a true pleasure to shoot. Very nice

@delousallen4212 6 лет назад

The weak area of the rear action screw split. you can see in the pictures. I had this stock for 30 days. During that time I bedded the front action screw and area. Because I did this, which only strengthens the stock, they will not warranty where the glue came lose on the lamination. "modification to the stock voids warranty" I had to modify it just to get the gun to fit in it and let the bolt go forward. Then I bedded it. Not happy and will never buy another one.It is a very nice looking stock, if you plan on not improving it, Bedding or pillaring. go for it. If you get the thumbhole stock, have very long fingers, or be prepared to kick your arm out to reach the trigger properly.

@spraynpray 4 года назад

I picked one of these up for my savage and officially gave up on it today and boyd's as a company. I was very disappointed when I got it and the LOP didn't adjust out to as long as the OEM stock. The stock only adjusts out to a "youth" size and the minimum size is for a baby or possibly a mouse. That is an exaggeration, but what isn't is the atrocious build quality. The aluminum rods on the LOP adjustment are hollow and threaded. They broke when I checked to see if they were locked in place. The wood on the sides of the actions is about 1/8" thick. I should measure it. I figured I could break it with finger pressure and I was right. One side delaminated and the other snapped in half. $250 down the drain. Before fiddling with it, I asked Boyd's for the extended version of the LOP adjuster as their advertisements were dishonest. They advertised the stock as suitable for magnum calibers and showed adult males using them. The stock was being damaged by the action screws tightened to 10 inch pounds and couldn't support the weight of a rimfire rifle action, it was bending. It could not handle magnum calibers, nor is the LOP fitting for an adult. I feel pretty bamboozled, but I've come to realize youtube reviews are advertisements. I don't appreciate it.

The 783, Axis II, and Patriot rifles all have wood stock offerings now. But I suppose you could put that extra money toward this stock instead and have an even better option.

@SocialRegressive 6 лет назад

I really like the feel of the Patriot stock. But you're right; I can see where someone would want to upgrade a base model so they get all the adjustable bits.

@DB-oz2ki Год назад

I bought a Boyd's at one stock for my Savage 308. Everything on it was WRONG. The cuttings were too deep. Nothing worked at all. Screws now hit and locked the bolt from moving, the magazinenow hit the bolt. The safety and trigger were locked up and did not work. The list goes on and on. It less then a minute put everything back into the original stock and the gun works flawless. The Boyd's at one stock into the fire wood pile where it belongs

Good review! I want to get my hands on one for my next project build and use our CNC milled aluminum parts and pillars.

@F53802 6 лет назад

V3 Precision a Hickman heads up, do not use aluminium pillars as these will deform over time (yes 44 inch pounds will deform aluminium). You are better off using steel as this will give a far more consistent receiver to pillar contact.👍

@SocialRegressive 6 лет назад

Heck yes! Everyone needs to check out your extra parts.

@V3Precision 6 лет назад

F53802 Actually, on our Savage Axis kit, the pillars are steel, the mag catch is 6061 aluminum.

@billmiller7979 3 года назад

Standard At-One of Ruger American Ranch is $227.00; Add $57.00 for pillar bedding; Add $31.00 for metal trigger guard and front magazine catch and you still have to glass bed the V blocks. This is like buying a Harley and having to add a lot of a extras to make it decent. Overpriced for me...cost/benefit analysis plus the addition 3 pounds of unwanted weight to a light carbine prompted rejection.

@SocialRegressive 3 года назад

It adds up fast. The American has a lot of finnicky cuts and extra parts. I can see why it starts so much higher than an Axis or Model 10.

@NortheastSurvival911 Год назад

I'm picking up my Savage 111 chambered in 30 - 06 very soon. I stumbled across Boyd's website because honestly I don't like plastic polymer stocks on rifles. There are very few exceptions. And Savage is not known for making a high quality factory stock. I have no complaints about any of the machining or anything made out of steel. But let's face it the stock is skinny it's far too light for heavier calibers it's not really comfortable. There's an enormous Gap at the end of the stock between the barrel and the stock. And yeah there needs to be a small Gap you know like a piece of paper for that free floating effect but Jesus christ.. it looks like Stevie Wonder took some LSD and put it together. I decided that I'm going with the exact stock that you have next to you on that bench. That configuration precisely. The color patterns are beautiful I like the hardware I like the designs the nice sharp edges.. it looks beautiful and far more durable than plastic garbage. And my rifles and handguns they don't all have one particular job. My rifles are all purpose rifles I hunt with some of them and sometimes I just go target practice with various calibers. I do this to maintain my marksmanship with all my firearms. The Savage that I'm picking up is going to be in all purpose weapon. And based off of your excellent review.. that seems like the best all-around stock to get. And that color pattern is beautiful. Although I know what's going to happen I'm going to order it I'm going to get it in the mail in a week later I'm going to want to order another one. Having OCD and ADHD stir It up in the same pot sucks sometimes. But on the plus side.. with every firearm that I own you would be hard pressed to find a single fleck of unburnt powder or residue anywhere in my firearms. Anyway thank you for a wonderful review. And as always stay safe, keep carrying and God bless 🙏🙏🏴🏴🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

You can find tutorials on my channel for the Savage Axis, Savage 10/110/12, Ruger American short- and long-action, and the Remington 770.

@Sagittariustoo 4 года назад

I got one for my Model 70 last year and like it a lot. It's 1000 times better than the cheap ugly plastic stock that came on the rifle. I do wish they would have rounded the tip of the fore-end. The slash shaped fore-end is the only part of the stock that looks bad. Hell, it looks downright ugly, actually! The stock should have had a flush cup sling mount upfront also.

@SocialRegressive 4 года назад

It's certainly a polarizing shape. The flush sling mount up front would be a cool add-on. Maybe they can put one together sometime since that panel is replaceable.

@MadAboutCichlids 3 года назад

Beautiful stock but very disappointed in how hard it is when to adjust the length. Also when installed barrel was sitting off to one side and made contact with stock so it was not free floating like the factory stock.

Killer project, Richard. That should be a lot of fun. I would recommend looking at the Boyds Heritage. It's a classic shape with a big Monte Carlo comb and a generous drop at the toe. It should be ridiculously comfortable. If you prefer something with a simpler, straighter shape for less muzzle jump, check out the Platinum. The Ruger American takes a few extra steps to bed in these stocks, so you should check out the At-One install job I did for my buddy's rifle. Good luck on your build!

Great video I am currently building a long range rifle I have a Ruger American predator 308 I have $300 to spend on a scope (moa/moa, variable if possible ).I'm looking to start shooting f-class . What scope would you recommend I value your opinion thank you and stay safe

@SocialRegressive 6 лет назад

You have some great options in that price range nowadays. Check out the MOA/MOA SWFA 20X. F-Class favors high magnification, so the fixed 20X should do well. If you need a variable, the best I can recommend right now at that price is the Falcon M18+. The glass is very nice, and the tracking is reliable. Check around for the Bushnell Engage, too. You might find one that fits your price point. I think there's a rebate out there.

6 лет назад

I agree you cannot go wrong with SWFA optics as the United States Navy snipers use those. Also check out primary arms and there ACSS retical as the bullet drop compensation is very accurate for the 308, .223/5.56 and if you’re running a special caliber for your competition if you contact primary arms and speak with Dimitri he is the gentleman that invented the ACSS. And he can help you with a sighting in range to match your caliber to the calibrated bullet drop compensation in their retical. The people at primary arms are here local to me in Texas and are a great bunch of avid shooter’s. As they are constantly going to range is around the country for product testing and competition themselves. Give them a try you can’t go wrong as I use their objects on just about every rifle I have and I own 21 currently LOL I’m always looking for a new gun.....

@rainmechanic 6 лет назад

A second the SWFA fixed 20X SS Scope.. You can get it in MOA/MOA or Mil/Mil.. They are proven to have the most accurate turret tracking in pretty much anything your going to find under $600 dollars.. The Primary Arms ACSS reticles are more designed for DMR type rifles and I don't think they would be a good choice for F Class paper punching.

Like the idea of that moving target, maybe improve it with more random motion and zigzagging?

what action did you drop into it?

@SocialRegressive 6 лет назад

A Stevens 200 from the last year of production. It's wearing a .308 Axis barrel.

Where can I buy this stock?

@SocialRegressive 2 года назад

Boydsgunstocks.com will cut a stock for your rifle action. Good prices, too.

@vaughngardiner2769 5 лет назад

When will we see this in Left Handed

@SocialRegressive 5 лет назад

Great question. It's already available for left-handed Savages and a bunch of others.

@vaughngardiner2769 5 лет назад

Didn't see it on the web sight. Sorry

@gunnarpaternal7495 6 лет назад

I will NEVER again buy from Boyds Stocks. They pulled a bait-and-switch on me and sent me the wrong stock and refused the return. I will GLADLY pay any of their competitors for the replacement. I strongly encourage you to look elsewhere for your stock. This is a shady company with TERRIBLE ethics.

You should contact your credit card company about this matter, it may have a salutary effect on their attitude.

same here, sent me a stock that was cut wrong, refused an RPO, I called my CC company and they got them to refund me.

@F53802 6 лет назад

What were your groupings like after you swapped to the boyds stock?

@SocialRegressive 6 лет назад

In my case, the improvement was extreme. The old stock would net me 6" groups because of its floppiness. My recent, kinda shabby handloads are down below .75 MOA, and I'm expecting better results with the new bullets I'll be testing.

The Social Regressive Holy smokes that’s amazing the improvement was that extreme! Wow that goes to show you how cheap the Tupperware stocks are LOL in order to make a cheap rifle. I would rather the manufacture skimp on the stock than the barrel and the action that way you can actually get into a good shooting rifle and upgrade The stock to one of your choice and not be stuck with the one the manufacturer decided to use. Wow that’s amazing the accuracy change that much I’m interested in seeing your test results that you talked about on another comment on this video.

@michaelw.urbansr.8617 5 лет назад

I ws wondering if these stocks add a % of accuracy to the rifle?I have heard that whn firing more then a round or two its better that the barrel is supported as it warms up.Is this correct?Im trying to figure out how this stock or an MDT stock adds accuracy so if you could enlighten me on this?I would be grateful i am new to long range shooting and have always wanted to do it.I literally live in a state that is not gun friendly so i have a hard time finding ranges over 300yrds.I have to travel out of state for anything over 400.So i have not had to chance to really test my Savage Axis in 6.5CM.Its in its stock,stock.Been looking at MDT but they are way to expensive and dont have the money to buy one even today with there 40% off sale :>/ the one i want is as low as 200.00 bucks too lol sux for me.I would be grateful for any insight you can give me on how to move forward from here? I believe the stock you have on your bench at the start of the video is the one i like? lol

@srs4767 5 лет назад

It will improve your accuracy a bit, especially in the Axis line. The Problem with the OEM plastic stock is that it flexes too much in the forend and starting touching the barrel somewhere. Savage barrels are "free floated" and should always remain that way. By adding a more rigid stock, you eliminate that possibility. It is also a heavier stock then the OEM plastic, so it makes the rifle heavier and reduces recoil a little more. I have an Axis in 22-250 that I put a Boyd's Prairie Hunter on, pillared it, & glass bedded the action. It shoots 5 shot groups that I can cover with a nickel.

@SAVAGE308SNIPER 5 лет назад

Looks like you need some work on your ejector dude. Bad news if you have to turn your gun over after every shot to dump out a spent shell.

@SocialRegressive 5 лет назад

Yeah, I ruined the ejector spring a while back. Fixed it, too. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE--E3FQoZzTLY.html

@nightlife811 3 года назад

wow, such BS... Boyd told me they will not and do not insert steel pillars. i guess only for those who will make a video and say nice things about their product only get that special treatment. i won't be buying from Boyd's. thanks for clueing me in on a product not to use.

@SocialRegressive 3 года назад

It depends on your action; and I think the pillars are aluminum. If it's available it shows up as an option during configuration. What rifle are you working with?

@nightlife811 3 года назад

@@SocialRegressive savage acis xp gen 2. Got with Boyd's and they only offer aluminum for rear. I could do the front myself just dont have the equipment needed. Be cheaper to have it done. I got the pepper Spike Camp stock. After i get front pillar taken care of will move on to action bedding.

Shooting at moving targets proves nothing really.

@SocialRegressive 11 месяцев назад

It proves that we can adapt one rifle to fit multiple shooters quickly and easily to such a degree that they can confidently and quickly hit moving targets. That's a big deal.

@shperax 11 месяцев назад

@@SocialRegressive I guess there is an inherent comfort attained before your fully accustomed to a new gun. I wasn't thinking that until you mentioned it. I know some guns I've picked up just immediately don't feel right.
