Maybe it’s just me but the mild anxiety of mailing barreled action, dealing with incredibly grumpy gunsmiths, and the many weeks/months of waiting has saved me a lot of money not rebarreling rifles. For better or for worse I guess. I sure wish I had some better twists on a few rifles that’s for sure
Man, if there was an option to do a blind magazine or hinged floorplate on a tikka I’d own an entire safe full of them. Great shooting rifles with decent aftermarket support. I’m in a similar decision making process and the only reason I’m considering a howa mini is the ability to ditch the...
