My only experience with a FTW was with a 375R. It shot right at an inch. Close enough... but I sold it because it wasn't as accurate as my Guide Gun. However, I didn't work very hard on it either. Ruger doesn't do anything special to these FTWs as far as accuracy. All cosmetics really. It's a Guide Gun with a dipped stock and a longer barrel with no iron sights. I'm left-handed also, so I like the Rugers, but I'm not a fan of the Guide Gun stock as far as the pistol grip is concerned. I took a dremel and files to the underside of my pistol grip of my Guide Gun to open it a bit and then to the area below the point of the comb where my thump goes. It was a good improvement. This is easy to do with a Guide Gun, but will remove the dip on the FTW. If they really wanted to make it special, they would have floated the barrel and mag box, and bedded the action. Of course, I really don't think they agree with 2 of those 3 mods.
