Got two. Haven't had a chance to shoot 'em yet though...

Ended up returning the MDT Field Stock and replaced it with a Carbon Stocky Stocks. Rifle balances well but it's still not the right fit for me in a prone position. It's a pity we can't get the stocky's VG in Australia, as I think a vertical grip is a must for this to work for me.

Just finished putting together a Howa 1500 build and was wondering if anyone one else was using this platform to build off of as well. Am thinking of using the 1500 action for a future 300 PRC mountain rifle so I’d like to see some semi-custom builds and here some feedback on how you like them.

Here’s mine, will post groupings when I get to the range next weekend:

Howa 1500 short action in .204 Ruger
Heavy barrel contour cut to 20”
KRG Bravo chassis
Deadair Sandman Ti
Talley pic rail with Vortex tactical rings
Primary Arms 4-16x44
Burnt bronze cerakote finish

View attachment 239205
a really cool build in my books would love so see some range shoots...

Approaching 200 rounds on the carbon barreled action 1500. It really likes the 156 EOL, though the factory ammo is a little slow at 2827 out of this gun. I'll get to reloading some day...
