6mm arc build Howa Mini or buy complete

[MEdude]

The 22ARC idea is appealing to swap with my 6ARC

I don’t seem to be able to find the info on brownells site .
How much does the 20 inch barrelled action weigh ?
I’m trying to work out a few things before purchasing components.

Cheers

Ken

This is the barreled action without the bottom metal

This or a variant of this works too for grabbing action.

I have a Brownells outside action wrench similar to that. May have to talk to my wife and see what she wants to do with her 308.

Stockys Vg, .223, 16” factory barrel, 19 ounce optic, 13 ounce suppressor, oversized bolt knob, JO bottom metal

7lbs 6oz. You should be right on with weight.



35” no can, 40” with can


This is my wife’s rifle and my stock and can. I’ll be swapping in 6mm, Swfa 3-9. Weight won’t change more than an ounce or two.

They did a really nice job with the Mini version of those VG stocks. I’m kind of curious if they have the same long trigger reach as the Tikka version?

Just needs some impact, not more leverage!

Did you happen to get the individual component weights while you had the barrel off?

I want to say somewhere I saw stockys post on here that the trigger reach is not as long as the tikka VG. I’m still waiting for mine, ordered on Jan 10th so I have a little while

I have a post somewhere with the exact measurement. In this, or one of the other mini threads. Will find the picture and repost.

It’s not with me right now.

I’ll get my buddy to weigh them though.

this also has been done on this and other sites and a search will turn it up.

Thanks!

The bare action (receiver only) weight is the part that seems to have the most discrepancy from the very few posts that I’ve found.

I also haven’t seen the factory barrel weight posted yet, unless I glossed over it. I suppose that one would be easy enough to math out, given that the other component weights are accurate.

This is a 6ARC 22” sporter. Barreled action and bolt weight. I’ll get a receiver weight but I think it’s 10 Ounces or so

Those of you running barrel lengths under 20. Are you happy with velocity’s or do you wish you had the longer 20 or 22” barrel? I bought the 20 mini Howa BA and want to cut it down to 18. I don’t need screaming velocity’s and I do/will be reloading for it.
