I've been on this site over a year now and didn't think my FTR project was ready for the photo book. It took a little time to get to this point but now that it is complete except for a few minor touches I figured I'd share it.

I started with a basic left hand BLV in 308. I have put on a PTG bolt head, Mcgowen SS 28" barrel 1:10 twist, .250 Holland recoil lug, PTG nut, Masterclass cheek piece wheel (little unorthodox placement of the wheel but needed to shed some weight), Timney trigger set at 2.5#'s, Nightforce MOAR with Talley Quick detachable rings and steel bases, and a Glades Armory SS bolt handle.
I shoot primarily 155 Palma SMK. As you can see from the target they group pretty nicely (the line on the target is 1").

Still might add a three position butt plate but that might wait until after season is over. Also waiting for my custom ground bolt body from PTG (due in August)
