Deerstalkerlunt Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 hi, been offered a howa 223 synthetic stock stainless barrel, 1500 model with cheap nikko scope . anyone use one ? are they any good . gun is as new condition . the seller wants £400 for it . what do you think .. thanks I have one and it is a brilliant gun very accurate, and very under rated. I have a Schmidt on mine and I also swapped the stock for a Bell & Carlson and bedded it in. But even before all that it was shooting under 1", now with reloads its shooting cloverleaf if not in the same hole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
