Absolutely correct and congrats on a fine looking buck. My M&P 10 is to be used in the same manner but I haven't got to let her pose with a deer yet. Well done!

My M&P 10 has been busy this deer season. So far I have taken 3 does with it and only one has made it out of her tracks.

Old school beasts count?
Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner on this question, I've been really busy the last couple months and it slipped my mind. LOP with the home made spacer is 13.75 inches and 13.00 inches without it

Finally took some pictures after installing the hand guard, scope and bipod.

Maybe I missed it, but why is your PRS not fully seated on the extension tube??

How do you like that scope? I was thinking of getting the same one since its on sale at Cabelas for $499. Just not sure if it would be to difficult for me with the MRAD reticle. I've only been shooting for about 2 years and have only used MOA scopes.

Yeah, thats a totally different scope that was on sale at Cabelas. They were selling the HS model, which was a really good price at $499, but the PST FFP versions are typically around $900.
This is an awesome piece of glass, and is arguably the value leader in its class given all the features:
Illuminated First Focal Plane Reticle
Milrad reticle with matching turrets
50mm objective
Waterproof
Shockproof
No questions asked lifetime transferable warranty
There aren't many other optics that come close feature-wise at this price point.
I havent shot it yet on the M&P10 but have been shooting the 6-24x50 on top of a Remington 700 5R 300WinMag the past week on a hunting trip. It seems more at home on top of that rifle given the high magnification.
However, I also had a Vortex 4-16x50 PST FFP EBR1 which I mounted now on top of the M&P10 and that seems like a better match.

I've been interested in a .308 for awhile. Went back and forth between bolt action and AR platform. My LGS made up my mind with an offer I couldn't refuse! Yes I had to modify to make it mine. I went with (for now):
Magpul stock and MS-3 sling
Ergo grip
Fortis Picitinney sling mount and forward hand stop
Osprey long eye relief 3-9 40MM Mil-Dot lighted reticule
TRU-Glo 1/2 rail riser
Nikon 30 MM P-mounts
(I could not get a good cheek weld, especially with low profile ear-muffs)
UTG 2 piece Quad rail
Harris Bi-pod (yes I know it will eventually affect my groups)
Velocity 4# trigger (All my other AR triggers are 4#, SWEETEST trigger for the $'s IMHO and Tom is easy to talk to)
After about 30 rnds for break-in, I zeroed at 50yd and first 3 rnds made 2 holes (rnd #2, enlarged hole from rnd #1) with less than .6" spread. At 100yd, 3 rnds in .7" with rnd 4&5 at .85".
The nut behind the trigger is the limiting factor. At 200yds 12"x12" steel I'm hitting 9 out of 10. At 300yds on a 12"x36" I'm hitting 9 out of 10.
Again I'm the limiting factor and considering I'm only amature status, and no formal training (a lot of coaching by friends and B-in-laws) I'm happy with the results. I guess the next step would be a free float hand guard, but it will always be there.
What do you think?
