    I made an irrational purchase while at gun city and picked up a stainless howa mini in 223 with a heavy barrel. Wasn't even on sale, but once I had them put it into an EXCL chassis I couldn't stop...

    I hate reviving threads like this but did you ever get the problem fixed? Was it a fungus or delamination issue? An update would be good for people who Google for issues as this pops up.

    I had looked at getting a T3x super varmint in a KRG Xray stock or something, but that puts it in the same ballpark as the Tac A1 which is better chassis as far as I'm aware?
