    Hi-Tec Howa Mini Carbon stocks ready...

    Just see on Kens FB page today. I recall a thread where a few people were asking if he was going to do one. These will make for a cool wee rig

    @Tommy yeah stink he's said he won't do them for the heavy barrel 300blk version. May have to stick with the factory stock for mine.

    The way I read that question and answer from Ken is that he will only offer the lightweight hunter style stock, not the vertical grip target style stock.

    Depending on his construction method he may be able to offer a hunter/sporter style stock for a heavier profile barrel - definitely worth asking, he is very responsive to questions.
