Do any of you guys own a Howa Talon, and if so what you think about them? I was going to order one in 6.5x55 and just wanted to know what you thought.  | ||

For the Price, you can do better. The Howa is a great rifle, but that thing defines butt ugly. I bought a 1962 Husqvarna 1900 Small ring '98 in 6.5x55 a few years ago. $395.00. Topped it w/ Warne- Weaver bases and rings and a Pentax Game seeker 4x32 BP scope. Weighs 6.5lb loaded. It is set up for 100...300 yards. Great rifle. I was amazed that the Ballistic Plex actually was at 50 yard increments w/ 6.5x55.  | |||

Jpat, you cut me deep!!!!!! I love the way Howa Talons look!!! But I do like black guns. Not saying that a wood stock is ugly just not my 1st choice. I know I will be criticized for saying that but it's okay. We all have our preferences. | |||

Cary, Lets see, last question I remember you asking went something like this............ Trying to decide on a new rifle..............I would just like to get the opinions of a few of you guys!!!le. Some of us young guys actually value the opinions of you old guys!!!! So with that in mind, No,no comment, and enjoy your "Talon". Best GWB | |||

I just received this from Mr. Howard the author of this thread...... You know when I said that I value the opinion of some of you old guys... you were not one of the old guys that I was talking about!!!!! So maybe you should put me on your ignore list so you can not see any of my future posts. You will definately be on my ignore list. I dont care to ever hear the opinion of a piece of shit like you!!!!!! Cary Howard I normally keep PM's confidential, but this was unusual. Maybe some folks here have me on ignore. Like Limbaugh, I consider myself to be a harmless little fuzzball. This is the first time in almost 10 years I've ever got a PM telling me I'm on ignore. Maybe I should consider that I have arrived! I don't. So since I'm on ignore and you probably would not see this unless you ignore your own threads,here goes. You asked others their opinion, I answered. My comments on this thread could be considered acerbic I guess. Don't feel special, I post numerous comments. Most are positive. Typically, I operate under the rule that friends come and go, but enemies accumulate. My intention was not to make an enemy. Evidently I have. If it will make you feel better, I will agree not to comment on any of your posts. However this is a public forum that I've frequented for many years, as do others. When you ask opinions, some times you may not like the ones you get. I'd say grow a pair. Best GWB | |||
