    I have a early pre recall trail was in 223 but made up a second barrel for it in 300 blackout
    From howa mini barrel
    Took a bit to get it as accurate as I wanted
    Ended up fitting bigger steel pillars epoxied in place and undercutting all the plastic then bedding
    With a very hard drying epoxy mix to make stock rigid
    Also the forend clamped via a sleeve to the barrel on mine so changed that
    Made my own clamp and drilled holes through forend to access the clamp screws
    Then made it one piece with the tig

    Both shoot lights out as far as trails go 1/2” for the blackout with cheap ammo
    And 3/4” for the 223 barrel
    Not sure if it standard but my 223 factory barrel is chrome lined
    And 3/4” not bad for that
    When I got it off previous owner it was a 2.5-3” out the box rifle
    Bedding the stock made the biggest difference bring down to just over a inch
    Also cut bolt knob off re bent handle for ergonomics and made my own thread
    On knob

    For use with a thermal it is awesome and super compact when shortened up 765mm with stock
    In carry position

    Extended the stock is a bit flimsy

    Old mate from polenar tactical has over 1k rounds though and seems to think that
    Infact yes, it’s a good rifle, even against semis, and that example shown in his videos has had more than its fair share of abuse, competitions and experiments done on it.

    I enjoyed mine while I had it, my only complaint was the stock felt a little bit sketch after I had used it a bit, would be more confident in trying another if there was a fixed stock option.

    I’ve since gone to one of wingman’s chassis on a howa mini in 6.5g and personally wouldn’t go back, the howa might be a bit more basic, but they are silly easy to play around with, coupled with the low price point. + supporting
    Local.

    My only complaint on the howa is the “stainless” that rusts if you breath on it.

    Other than that, it’s lighter and more durable than a CZ trail.

    Plus repeat accuracy isn’t much of an issue, unlike the trail.
