Anyone got one? Any insights or complaints? Wish the Springfield 2020 had shorter barrels

Thinking 20” 6.5prc, although could be convinced to try a different caliber. Mainly deer and pigs. Although I have the points to do elk and mule deer any year now!

Also though about a Ridgeline scout 6.5 creedmoor 16.5”barrel

Will be suppressed all the time

I reload so factory ammo no concern for me

I have fft Ridgelines in 6 and 6.5 creed. Both shoot well. Only complaint if I had to name one is that they don’t ship with thread protectors (I don’t hunt with muzzle brakes)

I have a Ridgeline Scout in 6.5 Creedmoor. Accuracy was exceptional in load work up but haven't had a chance to stretch its legs yet.

I really wish the Ridgeline FFT used AICS mags.

Seems like a lot of rifle for the money.

Found it!

Wander if the bottom metal off of a scout would work on a fft. Or if it would require further inletting to fit?
