I have a No4Mk1 that has been FTR'd, it has an ROF receiver with matching bolt and magazine, the barrel was changed with the original serial lined out.
The wood is Savage as is all of the metal bits that went into the FTR. I wasn't expecting too much for accuracy due to all of the mods done to the rifle.
There was a bit of swelling in the wood at the muzzle, I took a wooden dowel with some sand paper and the barrel was free floated.
I shot some 174 grain Hornady's at a local gravel pit, the first shot was on a target at 200+ yds.
I found a rock that really looked like a deer and was the same size, my first shot rested prone was right on to point of aim, from the 200+ yds distance I was shooting I saw the puff of dust but couldn't see the hit on the rock.
I strolled over and saw the mark on the rock, a high heart lung shot, the FTR was done properly I would guess.
