Hawkeyes are considered to have more svelte stocks and a better stock trigger. I have handled Hawkeyes and agree, but I own two Mk IIs and no Hawkeyes
Thats exactly where I'm at. 2 mkII's and no Hawkeye's. The Hawkeye isnt a bad rifle though. I like the LC6 trigger, but the MkII trigger can be turned into a very nice trigger with a little honing and a lighter spring. Accuracy is always improved with a good glass bedding treatment. Thats for both the Hawkeye and MKII. The MKII's had a nicer deep blue finish, but the stainless was too shiny, as compared to the Hawkeye matte finish.
