[QUOTE="Robert23430, post: 2997536, member: 121430"] I bought a NIB Howa M1500 Carbon Elevate in 6.5 Creedmoor (part number HCE65C) from a seller on Gunbroker.com. It has a carbon wrapped stainless steel #7 contour barrel and a Stocky's carbon fiber stock. When it arrived the carbon stock had several defects and I returned it to Howa (Legacy Sports International). They didn't replace the stock, but replaced the entire gun. At my request they exchanged the black carbon stock model with the Krytpek Altitude carbon fiber stock model. As it came from the factory it easily shoots better than 1/2" groups at 100y with factory loaded Berger 135gr Classic Hunter ammo. The factory trigger was set at 2.75# from the factory. The only changes that I am going to do are add a Matthew Fabrication cheek riser and a Howa ATIK5R65CR drop in magazine kit. [/QUOTE]
