High value predator rifle?

[Tmac]

If you already know you're replacing the stock, grabbing a Howa barreled action would be your other option. Brownells has 223, Grendel, 6ARC, etc. Add an MDT field chassis for $299.

Keep an eye out for discount codes that come around frequently and you can do pretty well in terms of accuracy and value for dollar.

Unless they have added options, don’t believe they fit the Howa mini action, and some of those calibers BA’s are mini actions. Be something to check on.

Oooo I

I thought about a barreled action from Howa too, but with a 90° bolt angle, I worried about clearance with the big thermal scope and gloves

Am i overthinking the bolt angle?? I watched a video yesterday on the Mini and it looked like the bolt handle was all but hitting the scope

Have you looked at the CVA Cascades at all? Little bit higher price point but man they're solid rifles.

I like them a lot, but unfortunately, there’s almost 0 aftermarket support since it is a proprietary action. That was my only hesitation

A buddy has Cascade LRH. It shoots. For sure.

That’s 3 at 100 from a 7 mag. 162 ELDMS at 3065.

That would kill any predator you wanted to.

Factory stock on that particular model of CVA is a lot better than an American.

That is not a 10 round group (30 woulda been better) and it is obviously not centered. Therefore those 3 lil pinholes dont tell us much.......................
