[QUOTE="comfisherman, post: 2676110, member: 8394"] Gotta be quick to get a fieldcraft under 2500 these days. I sure hope someone resurrects the idea some day. I tried to warm to the howa, even went to the shop with cash in my pocket and high hopes. I was looking at the mini carbons, as almost nothing out there exists in that space. Stock coating was as inspiring as early 2000s browning duratouch, 2 of the 3 barrel channels were off enough it was gonna take some effort and bedding to alleviate symmetry ocd. The exterior finish and bolt slop made me take back every hurtful thing I've ever said about cerebus remington or Vista savage. I've no doubt they will likely shoot, almost everything shoots good when compared to rifles even 20 years ago. Just couldn't overcome the nuances and my wallet was marked safe from the ultralight howa. If kimber can figure out a stock supplier so they can make something other than a Hunter, they will rule this market segment. While they have sent some rifles out with quirks, seems like they were usually tweakable. [/QUOTE]
