Man, here I was getting close to pulling the trigger on getting a Ruger American .223 in either the Predator or the All-weather. Hadn't heard of the Howa Mini but now you have my curiosity peaked.
You got me all sorts of confused...
Don't overlook the standard Howa either. You can get them for the same price and you won't have to deal with the mag constraints of the RAR and the Mini.
