    Well after some thought and advice from you fine gentlemen ( cough cough ) on this site , and seeing Tommy's howa chassis gun porn , and the fact that there's always a chance of a goat ,pig , or maybe a deer floating around I have decided to go the 223 route and I am officially on the list at 55six for the new kiwi made ultralight howa chassis.
    Give me a bit of a project as well , and support a kiwi made product to boot.

    I thank you all for your insight and input.
    It's going to be a long three months waiting for the chassis though..... it's only been a week and already I'm chomping at the bit....
