    Nice to see a Howa custom, one of the best designed actions out there.
    The 1/13 twist will work really well with 155's.
    Have fun with it.

    so i finally got out to the midlands range last sunday to try her out.
    after a quick zero check at 100yards i went down to the 300 yard range. after i did a few adjustments i end up with this.:D

    fairly happy with this i decided i would stick up another target and have another go i noticed on my walk back for putting up my target that the wind had picked up just a bit. so i ended up with this:eek:
