The stock and rings/bases turned up this week so I have thrown it together with a 3-9 I had lying around.
I am pretty impressed with the boyds stock, fit is precise and has a really nice finish. Shame you cant go over the $100 mark as I would have liked to have added some checkering.
Also impressed with the finish on the howa action, much higher standard than anything else I picked up in the price range.
The idea was to buy new glass (prob bushy elite 3-16) and a DPT can, but am considering putting up with the extra bang, and lower quality optics (quite like the Nikon 3-9 as chunting option anyway) spending the cash on a reloading setup instead.
When the current feckin hurricane blows itself out I might actually get a chance to go break her in.
Cheers for all who gave me advice on the choosing of calibre ect.
