Just ordered a Howa barreled mini action in 6 ARC, 20” heavy. What are people liking better with these, a stockys type stock or chassis? Thanks

What are you planning on using it for? I’m a fan of more traditional stocks over chassis on hunting guns generally, but I’m not doing any shooting prone, or off bags or bipods. If that wasn’t the case I might prefer a chassis.

My brother has a traditional profile carbon stock on his mini and really likes it as a walking-around hunting rifle

Probably a mix of plinking and hunting

I like the Stocky’s VG, it’s what I have unified all my rifles to. I had a Howa Mini built into a 6 BRA, it’s fun to shoot the 6mm bullets out of it. Such a light recoiling rifle.

Just ordered a Pendleton stock for my 22” 6.5 Grendel barreled action. Adirondack forest hunting rifle. Will be getting a JO hinged floor plate as well. Anxious to get it together and shoot it.

I'm a sucker for the Bell and Carlson sporter on my 6ARC. They make an M40 style too. I'd also consider a JTAC or Stocky's. The JTAC would look sweet with that heavy barrel.

I put my son’s Howa Mini in 6mm ARC into an MDT chassis.

When the rokstock comes out, I’ll likely be swapping for that. And adding an arca rail to the bottom (if they don’t bake that into the design).

Not confirmed. Just hoping they're successful enough to expand RokStok product to many different inlets and add/adjust to include features that are growing in popularity.

The mini requires a lot of changes because of length and things. It would be cool, but probably will be quite a while. They are slowly coming up to speed with preorders
