Thread: Needed a new lockable case for my ftr rifle

Yes. The grs stocked howa 308 has 26" bbl and there is 1" to spare, so fits inside my car. Had to make it a bit thick to accomodate scope turrets and bubble. 20mm of padding below with recesses for the offset pistol grip, scope turrets and rings etc. Bare wood and felt inside to regulate changes in humidity. Thus no sweating hopefully. The rifle is supported only across mid butt cheekpiece and forend under receiver and longitudinally by ends i.e. butt plate and bipod spigot. The bbl is unsupported and the rifle is held solidly by stiffish foam upper mating blocks covered in closed cell foam and felt to absorb any shocks.
