Got my 6.5 Howa mini put together and really happy with it. Weighs in at 7lbs with the 20' heavy barrel, walnut stock, and scope. Just about a perfect fit for me.

Boyds Platinum stock that I bedded with Devcon and added a Oregunsmithing bottom metal too. Just like the cleaner lines better than my 6.5 with a magazine and a threaded barrel

Good looking stick, nice walnut. I still prefer a good wood stock to a Synthetic stock.

I love this build. What are the two disc near the receiver? Are they cosmetic or are they functional?

Necro revival. This is absolutely beautiful and what my HMA aspires to be with a sporter barrel. I'm going to have to look at the Boyd's site again now.
