Howa Mini EXCL

Bought me a Howa Mini EXCL (American flag stock) in 6.5 Grendel, looking for a super shooting, all-around tactical/target rig. The Mini barreled action is a winner. Howa did a great job with it. But my hope to have a good platform for M-Lok devices was never filled. The "pretty" composite stock is pure junk, in my estimation. Using a bipod, either in the side M-Lok's or in the bottom swivel stud, is a joke the rifle flops around like a drunken sailor. May try to get Howa to swap me a hunting stock for this one. Then I can at least see if I can make the Grendel shoot as good as I think it will.
 
I dropped mine into a Bell and Carlson and use a Swagger Bi-Pod Setup on mine and couldn't be happier.

It will never shoot like you expect with a bipod. Just my two cents Tommy Mc
 
MDT made a full on Chassis for them for a short time. And of course Boyds makes an inlet for them.
