Howa 6 mm Creedmoor

[Castle Rock]

Has anyone used or got any feedback on these , looks like a decent deal for a barreled action, 7.5 twist sounds good

Where are you seeing this available?

I picked one up years ago. Rebarreled them, but shot it with some factory ammo and it was ok. Never tried more. I bet they are the same as any other.

The heavy barrel version shot fantastic for me in an onyx chassis. I only loaded 108ELDM and 107SMK but neither were very picky about seating depth or charge weight.

I haven’t seen a 6 CM barreled action on Brownells in a while.

Huh? Where? I Handload and know how to bed a stock and modify the trigger spring. I can get it to shoot.

Can you confirm where you found these available?

 

[General RE LEE]

My assumption they never were available.

No, not in a store. No where but Brownells has them regularly.

I called howa about them maybe 6 months back because I was interested in getting one in 6cm. The guy I talked to told me they discontinued them “because there wasn’t any interest in the 6cm”. Go figure.

I have a cut and threaded 6mm factory barrel if anyone is interested. I was gonna keep it, but it’s one of many barrels I will never shoot.

I bought two 6 creeds when Brownells sold them out.

I think the 6 CM is getting more popular.

Yep…that’s what I told him. Was just passing on what I heard from Legacy Sports. The importer of Howa.

I’ve talked to Legacy Sports on the phone a couple times. They aren’t very friendly. It’s like they don’t want to deal with the public.
