Guys,

Can someone with a Howa Mini-Action and a set of calipers let me know what the receiver wall thickness, total receiver diameter and action screw spacing is?

I'm planning a project for a cartridge off of the .221 Fireball/300 Blackout case and am comparing actions to use.

I have a Sako AI (in .223) and a Kimber Montana (in .223) to compare to. And yes I know that CZ has the 527 and there is also the (former) Rem. 799/Euro Mini-Mauser, but don't want to go with these for a couple of reasons (in spite of the eye candy Butch has plastered on these pages of his Mini-Mausers).


Also; Anyone with a 'Wildcat Composit's' stock care to comment on "finished" stock weight. He lists stock weight at 17.5 ounces. Undoubtedly before a pad and bedding.


Thanks,

Jerry
