Howa Australian Precision Rifle

Does anyone here have a Howa Australian Precision Rifle? I've been looking pretty hard at one of these in .223 Remington to have some 250 to 500 yard fun on the cheap.

I have one. With my reload, I get 1/2 MOA with it. The stock is the weak link imho. It works but I need more adjustment at prone position.

Nice. I'm not reloading the .223; yet. But I do have a press I can and plan on using to reload it. Thanks for the info.

Before reloading, it took me awhile to find cheap factory ammo with good results. The best non match factory ammo for mine is Fiocchi 50 grain v max. I got 1 moa out of it.

I never try factory match ammo though.
