    I really like the feel/balance/ergonomics of my Ruger Hawkeye, I know Ruger don't have the same reputation for accuracy as some but mine groups sub-inch at 100m which is decent enough. Trigger was crisp but heavy as standard, got someone with more knowhow than me to lighten it up and now its really nice - not quite Savage accutrigger nice, but not too far off.

    Haven't used the Howa but didn't like the floppy stock of one in the shop, have used the Weatherby version of the same action and didn't like it - heavy clunky thing.
