Rtheurer, Did you replace the plastic bottom metal,well plastic bottom anyway? I'm getting ready to order a bottom metal for mine and do the magazine where it will fit flush instead of sticking out. I bought the AT-1 stock but I want to put pillars in and bed it. It shoots pretty good now but I believe that will help some.
Everyone in this hobby knows that if you do not buy a soft market fully saturated over represented "widget" you can not find anything! Example you can find after market bolt bodies, bottom metal, stocks, triggers and tools for the Rem700 but almost nothing for a Ruger American. You can find all kinds of parts for a Ruger 10/22 all day long in fact you could build a Ruger 10/22 with out using any Ruger made parts not even the action but try that with a CZ 452 not happening! It would appear you have not suffered too much with a stock trigger.Does anyone here happen to know if the Howa Mini action ( 6.5 Grendel, 223, 204, 7.62X39) takes the same trigger at the larger Howa Short action with the HACT trigger?
Its not bad for a factory trigger but I was looking for something a little lighter. After running, Anschutz, Bix and Andy, Xtreme, CG, Jewel... You get to become a trigger snob... hard to go backwards.
Appreciate your help.

Don't let him get to you,he just rambles off topic . Loves to talk about himself with no real input.Thanks… I think?
I am shooting it in Competition and not a Deer/Hobby rifle. So there for it can not be left well enough along. Not to toot my own horn here, but with several National Records, State/Regional Championships, National Trophy's to the old Resume.... I prefer to improve the HACT trigger. A simple Query of what was out there was what I was looking for. Shooting at that level you learn to modify and improve equipment to your needs which I have been doing for twenty years now. We do it all the time. The little rifle with a New barrel shot so well I decided to make it a Match rifle. YOur welcome to giggle at the post if you want. It was a simple inquiry.
I should have know I was opening my self up to some ridicule by posting here.
Best of luck with your plinkers.
Russel.
How smoothe is the bolt operation of the Howa Mini as far as cocking and fore & aft movement? Wish they made a Hornet version. TIA
Its a 1mmx something. Im doing one now in 20PPC and the thread is very close to a 26tpi, so close in fact that I am converting mine to a 7/8-26. That's .015 larger diameter than the metric.These are cool little actions with some great features. Always wanted a walk around. 22PPC. May just have to do it. What tennon thread do they run?
Thanks guy,
Paul
I asked, and the Timney #611 is the replacement for the 1500 mini action...
