Savage ultralite very very accurate rifle. Just saying try it and you if you don't like it you can always resell and built your rifle. The Howa seems to he accurate only wirh certain loads and only with the first 3-4 furst shots. I don't have experience with it and my comment is based on a couple of videos ou Youtube so for what it's worth.... But my brother inlaw has bought the Savage and it's a winner. My 2 cents ! Hope you find your grail !
I have no idea how you read, just look at what the notice points out.
Does Kimber ship to Canada? I didn't realize they've stopped shipping to Canada. Their website says they won't ship out of the US. Maybe I should keep mine? Beautiful, accurate and light.
To bad, they're excellent firearms for the mid range price.

Yea Kimber being gone from Canada for years ! Korth was the distributor BUT who knows why ? Iāve owned 5 Kimber Hunter rifles and Unfortunately I sold them all .
IME Thereās a hell of a difference's in accuracy between a factory barrel and a hand lapped custom installed on a factory rifle, prefit or smithed.
I hold very tight and get no benefit with triggers under 2.5 pounds. I have two TT 2 stage. One is in still in the box. Early 80ās REM 700 triggers are superior.
Personally Iād put a skinny IBI or JC Custom steel prefit on that little Howa and giver.

Just sold my 338-06 ! not needed
That's it. Just bought it.
Thanks all. I may rebarrel it to a 14" .338 Federal eventually but that price was way to good to pass up
Glad to hear. North Pro is awesome to deal with. Ive spent a lot of money there over the years online and in person.
man, that is such a good deal. I just got a Weatherby vanguard high country for my mountain hunting, if i had seen this deal i would have got it in a heartbeat.
I don't know why there isn't more love for the Howa's, they're a Weatherby Vanguard. Same factory, same action, different name on the side. I've never had a Vanguard not shoot sub MOA or better. Once you break the actions in they're slick as silk, and they have pretty decent triggers in them from the factory. Personally I think they're a better bang for your buck then an Axis, or even the new Savage 11/111's honestly.
