Chris B. of Idaho sent us some photos of his recent 308 FTR build using our Criterion Shouldered prefit barrel and a Zermatt TL3 action purchased from Northland Shooters Supply.
Here are some of the components Chris used on his build:
- Zermatt Arms TL3- AI mag cut- Beadblast finish
- 30”- Criterion shouldered prefit- Heavy Plama contour- 308 FTR- 10 Twist
- Forster headspace gauges

Here is what Chris had to say about his build:
“Just an update on my new assembly. I am still in early load development.
- Zermatt Arms TL3
- Criterion 30” Heavy Palma, 308 FTR 1-10 twist
- Manners MCS-T4A-TEAM Stock
- Jewel Trigger
- Burris XTR III
- Lapua LRP (large rifle primer) Brass
- 175 grain Sierra SMK
- Fed 210 LRP
- Varget 43.2 gr (2713 FPS)
- .25 MOA 5shot group 100yd.
- Sinclair F-Class bipod
I had the 175 SMK’s from 638-1075 yards this past weekend. Groups are under 1 MOA at these distances. I will likely use it in our next Club FTR shoot. Still bonding with it.
NSS is just great to work with. Don’t be afraid to do the assembly yourself.”
