Stock options for FTR

[Fullbore308]

I’m interested in the Borden Rimrock BRM action for a FTR rifle. Any suggestions on stocks?

I'm a fan of the Kelbly 1M. It's expensive but it's very low weight and allows you to run a Heavy Varmint barrel and still make weight.

Mcmillan xit is also popular, but a pound or pound and a half heavier.

Thanks, I’m liking the kelblys not sure if the rad system can be added. Like my wife said gotta watch the weight lol

Agree XIT or Cerus are popular, I have no experience with Kelby to comment. I also have a HS Precision tweaked a bit that shoots well with Borden HBR in it.

Jason at X-ring has designed a new FTR stock, he will customize to your specific dimension. His action inlets are second to none.

In the picture I posted? No that is computer generated. Jason is a wiz at that programming stuff, he will change one dimension or angle for you and have a representation like that pic in minutes.

That's super cool that Jason takes input from his customers and tweaks the design to meet the shooters needs/wants.
You dont get that kind of service with most stock makers.

I have one (FTR stock) in production that is supposed to be a 90 day lead time - about halfway through now.

He will inlet for the action and channel for the barrel for special contours. He was open to using wood from specialty suppliers as long as it met his dimensions and I'm sure quality & dryness standards as well. I talked to him about modifying his BR stock and he is more than willing to work with you.

Can't wait to see the final product as his customer service is great.

A couple pictures Jason sent as an example of his FTR stock -

Looking forward to seeing the stock when it's all done.
Your not going to believe how beautiful this custom black cherry is that I'm clearing now.
Dark and sinister, but with lots of pop!
I'm really enjoying working with you guys on your builds.

It can.

I love my Kelblys 1M for FTR. It's light enough I'm running a contour heavier than HV, with a Phoenix bipod.

I appreciate all the input. I’ve ordered a Kelblys 1M. 3 months out then sending it to Bc’s so he can perform those mad ninja painting skills on it. Thanks for the direction

That was a fat finger meant Bc’z

I use the Kelblys 1M. Great stock for F class. I shoot F/TR
