Re: Howa Mini
Weatherby are doing a mini as well.
They're doing a flush alloy floor plate option as well,that will suit me.
Next calibers to hit our shores will be the 222 and 7.66 x 39, followed by 6.5 Grendell.
221 Furball is in a long way off.
Timber stock ,not going to happen for awhile.
Direct quotes from OSA rep yesterday .

Did a quick google search and a look at weatherby's site with no result. My googlefu was weak today.

Re: Howa Mini
Picked up my 223 HB action this morning, working out what which stock is gunna work with minimal effort.
grey lminate is a Boyd Ruger American stock, action holes spacing within a 1mm
2nd stock is a Boyds thumbhole inletted for a Zastava Mini mauser, front action screw is about 10mm more forward, both are doable, leaning toward opening up the thumbhole first.

Re: Howa Mini
Excuse me Mr Stevil sir, if you don't use the Zastava Boyds thumbhole, wanna trade if for one of their walnut Prairie hunter models for the same action ??
