Thread: Modifing the Howa Mini plastic stock on my 6.5G

That said I dropped a very large pig on the spot with my evil 223 at 80 mtr but also heart shot a littler one at 30 and it ran off and we never found it... and I didn't like that. But I wouldn't have shot a red with that rifle.

See if you can have a crack on a grendel. They are a great we gun. Remember they have a bullet that is over twice the weight of most 223 bullets and with the higher bc retain 1000ft lb to almost 400 yards. I love shooting mine. I think the other point is the tiny rifle and action you can get them in. That is where I see the big advantage over downloading a 260 or creedmore. Haven't shot my 08 or my 223 since getting the 6.5g
