Any range updates on your Howa??I picked up my Howa yesterday, got the scope mounted early this morning. Range day in a week or two.

Looks like it is working out good for you.Found several possible loads. Shooting 3 shot groups since its a deer rifle and if I miss after the 3rd shot "bambi" should get a free pass.
Here are the latest grips. Waiting on a few boxes of Nosler 100 gr8 BALLISTIC TIPS which is my preferred bullet. Very happy with this rifle. Light and accurate.

They are plenty accurate for deer hunting for sure. I've just come to expect smaller groups from my rifles.I got my son a Howa Mini in 6.5G.... It's a decent rifle but not the most accurate I've ever seen. Hell, It's actually on the side of the one of the worst I've owned but it is plenty good enough for the Ole' MInute of Deer kinda mentality an he took his first deer with it at 175 yards.
I wouldn't not however buy it again
I load for it. I have shot some factory ammo out of it and was unimpressed. I don't remember that brands but I do know wolf was one and it was horrible. Like 6" groups at 100 yardsInfidel, do you load for it or just factory?
I agree 6.5G is highly capable. The Howa maybe not so much?Sounds like you got a lemon. I have fired every factory round made including all of the original AA loads and never had a group over 2 inches for any of my 3 Ar`s or my latest Ruger Ranch. Most hover around an inch and some have been clover leaf groups. I only make three shot groups from my 16 Ar, and my Ruger. If I miss after three shots its not tne gun or ammo
