    Now you just need to convince them to make them in Grendel, 20in barrel in light sporter and a varmit profile.

      "Other short action calibers coming". How could they not include the Grendel ? What could be a more obvious perfect fit ?

      It looks pretty sweet :-)

        That's exactly what I've been looking for when I break down for a centerfire bolt gun for my girls.

          It seems anti-ergonomic to adopt a mag release forward of the magazine.

            Nice!
            Howa rifles have scored very well in tests over here.

              At the SHOT show they announced that new calibers would be coming out in 2015 http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2...action-rifles/

                I just sent an E-Mail to Legacy Sports suggesting Howa produce this action in 6.5 Grendel. I figure it can't hurt to try I used this E-Mail. AMcCormick@legacysports.com

                  Well I already got a response from Legacy Sports, I guess I'd better start saving my pennies.

                  We ARE working on it ! I totally agree ...
                  With Hornady already having the ammo on the market with SST and Amax loads and
                  GMX coming ... great option for a deer / antelope cartridge !

                      Who all would be interested in these in 6.5 Grendel? We're looking at the option of running a Group Buy to get the ball rolling.

                        These are pillar-bedded, synthetic stock, hammer-forged barrels, really nice 2-stage trigger. Basically, they look ready to glass and go blasting with.

                          MSRP will be between $599 to $699, depending on barrel and stock selection. They have been looking seriously at this since it came up at SHOT.

                              I think this rifle begs for a threaded barrel so someone can use a suppressor or other muzzle device.
