Dickthomas Posted November 16, 2014 Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 I thought this may be of interest to other users. I recently purchased a Howa 1500 sporter, stainless barrel in 204, with Hogue stock. Try as I might, I couldn't get better than 3" grouping, must have gone through half a pot of H335. I decided to change the stock and sent for a Boyds featherweight thumbhole stock in royal jacaranda. The total cost was £136,which included £26 import fees. The stock arrived and the action was bedded using Devcon plastic steel putty. When I shot it yesterday for the first time, off the bonnet of my defender, I was astounded! 3 rounds within .5". Ive no doubt that this would improve if I were to shoot it off the bench. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
