[QUOTE="earlcurtis67, post: 987286, member: 47174"] thanks for the replies fellas, went to my local gun shop today and handled the axis, and 110, also a Ruger american L/A and a T/C venture. would have to say the bolt handles and actions didn't bother me so much as the feel of the stocks, and the fittment to the Ruger and the T/C. He didn't have either of the heavy barreled versions of the Ruger and Axis, but is checking on prices for both. On the way home I stopped at a local pawn shop where i finally found a Remington 788 to actually hold in my hands. Had read good things about this gun, especially short actions. The stock was pretty beat up , but the receiver and barrel looked pretty good, the bolt felt a little sloppy ( is this normal for this model; 22-250 ),with a very old nikon 3x9, he was asking 385.00. I have looked at the mossberg and agree it would be a viable alternative if it was offered in .243, I like that it uses AR mags and has a nice stock. Haven't heard anyone comment on Howas....... anyway I'll keep ya'll posted, and Keep the comments and opinions coming E [/QUOTE]
