Default RE: Browning or Weatherby

oeh what are you saying? Are you saying that Howa builds the guns while Miroku doesnt? You can get on Miroku's website and they clearly state their business which does not include gunmaking. Howa's website proudly features their gunmaking division. Yet as anyone with an Abolt can vouch, Miroku is clearly stamped on the barrel
Howa builds Howas and Weatherby Vanguards and their MK V'ss and S&W's for years that is what I am saying.
Miroku probably builds Brownings for all I know and care.

Does this include your one of a kind 60 degree throw howa? You clearly havn't spent any time in the land of the rising sun. Multitasking companies are the norm.
BC hopefully your not asking me this question I don't know about anyone else but my Vanguard clearly has a 90degree bolt throw.


Changing the subject a little, has anyone tried or bought the Weatherby Vanguard Sub-MOA? From their website, I got the impression that they just pulled the best shooters out of the regular Vanguards and are trying to charge more for them. Am I mistaken? Are they worth it?

My Regular POS vanguard in 300 wsm does sub .99 and it doesn't have the fancy floorplate or stock. I wish it had the stock though but for 375 bucks I can't have everything. If the gun retails in the 600 dollar range and shoots like my 375 dollar gun it is well worth it and a darn good value.
