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.
