.... rifles have been discontinued and I bought everything they had left. That translates into good things for you guys.....they'll be cheap!
Some have the black stock, some have the green stock. Most are their #2 sporter contour, some are heavy barrel varmint rigs. Magnums are 24", everything else is 22". They all have the 2 stage trigger and bottom metal -- no DBM.
I'll get an actual breakdown and post it here first.

Good to hear, SAS. I've got a buddy looking at a 308 now. I'll tell him to wait to hear from you!

Thanks SAS. Do you know if Howa quit making them, or did LSI decide to market Cerakoted models instead? Either way, I don't like it.

Layaway? I just put another one on tonight. It's almost too easy, click, click, click, done... 90 days to figure it out. LOL

Layaway will be available.
MSRP starts at $769.99 on these rifles. We'll be selling them for less than half of that! I'm negotiating freight today or I'd go ahead and post the price.
I don't know if it was a Howa or Legacy deal, but you can bet it was a cost saving measure on somebody's part. I'm a fan of stainless too...

Yes, yes and no. I asked specifically about the 6.5 creed and there are none. There are 6.5x55's though...
My thoughts...they'll be priced low enough to strip for builds too. Some guys will keep them as is for an all stainless rifle and some guys will pull the barrel for builds.

Howas are my favorite push-feeds. Gotta wonder why they're cutting the stainless models though.

Looks like they will be a heck of a deal. Always liked them but too heavy from the factory the stocks being my bigger complaint, at that price affording a build will be very easy!

No stainless barreled actions...no 375 Ruger's.
The Howa's have an integral lug, which does make them heavier than 700. That's a feature a really like.
