    It's this one here , scroll down for the full view, Mate has one he has a Howa in and I was impressed with the way it fitted, handled and shot so bought one for the Tikka and the mag
    However It has just sat under the reloading desk , never been out of the box
    Probably move it on if your interested.

    Hunting, short to med range, light weight. Main reason is I have always liked the look of chassis rifles especially the folding stock options for being compact.

    Ideally try to handle as many as possible before dropping the $$$$ as they all feel different. Sure most you can adjust butt length and cheek rest height but they they all have their own characteristics.


    Those are just my quick thoughts after owning the above chassis. A folding buttstock can help with cleaning as the cheek rest sometimes need to be removed/lowered on the fixed buttstocks so you can get a cleaning rod trough the barrel. Not a biggy but something to consider.
    Thanks for that, would not have thought of that
