B17GRe: Bolt Action Rifle from Mossberg?
Trev:
It did not look anything like a howa, unless it is a lesser version of the Howa.
Will have to see
cheers

B17GWas in Wally World tonight and noticed that they have a bolt action rifle from Mossberg.
it was in a 270 caliber and featured a synthetic stock, and already had the scope bases on it ( weaver style).
it was push feed design but seemed to be a lot better put together than the Rem 710 joke.
it struck me at on par with the Winchester Synthetic Stock ones at Wally Mart, but with a more traditionals feel to it.
However the final thing was the price!
$244.00! Is Mossberg looking to replace Savage as a cheap rifle that can really be accurate?
if anyone gets one of these a range report to the rest of the gang would be pretty interesting.
cheers and good hunting this season

TrevofKalI noticed somewhere that Howa used to make rifles under the banner for Smith and Wesson and others. I thought Mossberg was one of the names in the list.Just those two names stuck in the memory though.
