Re: Howa Owners
******************
when I get a throw away stock again I want to look into using that glass (fiber) tissue you get and molding it onto the inside of stock, slowly and meticulously with resin. I am confident a half circle of glassed surface will be 100% acceptable. The stuff is like tissue paper and sets like sheet metal when cured.

Re: Howa Owners
Camdix have the 6.5 Creedmoor barreled action for sale at R7100 or R7500. Either way, I think it's a top deal for anyone interested in a Creedmoor.
And no, I'm not affiliated with camdix in any way.
Just thought I'd share

Re: Howa Owners
I am looking at getting a second Howa 6.5 Creedoor barreled action. Just to stand in the corner of my safe until the first one dies. When that happens I can just fit the current rifle's trigger, stock and scope to it and continue hunting. Easier, less complicated and (a lot) cheaper than re-barreling. Kinda like a disposable rifle.

Comments: After sorting out the trigger loving it. Weight with suppressor is heavy and the balance is tricky with standing shots and a hasty sling. Also hasn't been picky with loads😆
