If you run the factory rifles do you typically do any upgrades?

If you build on them, does your gunsmith bitch about the metric threads?

I've looked at Howa 1500's before. They seem nice and the price is right, I just haven't tried one.



Have and do shoot both. No flies on a factory tube from Howa IME. Only reasons I have replaced the factory tubes are due to twist rate or contour.

McMillan and a Timney works wonders, but the new factory offerings regarding triggers and stocks (depending on model) are more than serviceable IMO.

If you have a gunsmith that bitches about metric threads, find another gunsmith.

Try one. They're a Sako clone. Which is more than can be said for any of the other "budget priced" POS that are out there.
