The second purchase will be another Howa but this time in 223 Rem. IT will be one of the heavy barrel rifle and will be mainly used for target shooting and light game.

At the moment I'm tossing up whether to put Redfield or Leopold scopes on those rifles. I used to be a big Bausch and Lomb fan but I'm pretty sure those days are gone.
