New Ballard-Designed F-TR Stock from Precision Rifle & Tool

Charles Ballard, two-time U.S. F-class Open Champion, has been working with Precision Rifle & Tool on a new F-TR (Target Rifle) stock. Charles designed the stock to combine the adjustability of the better F-Open designs with a nice rigid fore-end for bipod use. Charles has shot the new stock in competition and he says it tracks really well. When fitted with a wide-base bipod, the stock is super-stable, with minimal hop on recoil.

The new stock is officially called the “Ballard LowBoy F-Class Target Rifle (F-TR) Stock”. This new design is available immediately, in a variety of laminated colors, starting at $325.00 (without hardware). The stock can be inletted for Rem 700 actions, Rem 700 clones, the Savage Target Action, and most custom actions.

Key Features of the new Ballard F-TR stock are:

• Extended front to provide proper balance with long barrels.
• Low profile design for a lower, more stable center of gravity.
• Buttstock has a 1/2″ machined flat on the bottom and angled sides to provide superior tracking in the rear bag.
• Buttstock has a slight angle to allow minor elevation adjustments.
• Optional adjustable buttplate and optional adjustable cheekpiece.
