Is there a decent factory or am I better off building one. Going to be using it as a night time varmint gun. Not committed totally to this caliber but want something quiet and I have the dies and everything to get up and running.

Thank you
 
I’ve got the Howa and like everything about it, except the mags(feel cheap and flimsy) and the mag release. I had a couple feeding issues with Hornady 110s, though I’m not sure if it is the mag or the ammo. Never had an issue with 190s or 220s.

My problem with the magazine release is just because of its location.

I keep hoping someone like MDT will either build a chassis that works with other mags or design a new mag, but no luck.
There is also the Savage, Ruger, and Remington Model 7, if you can find one.

There is an Oryx available for this model available now. Should address most of your issues.

I rebarreled a Cz527 MTR from .223 to .300 Blackout. I had to mill the magazine guide ribs for the .30 cal bullets to work in the magazine but so far it's working well. Having the biggest problem getting MV spreads tight enough for use past 300-400yd. Start getting a lot of vertical. Working towards 500-600yd capable subsonics. Totally for shits and giggles. Get some good looks when you ping 300-400yd steel with a blackout sub.
 
Ive got a Rem 700 300blk factory gun. Put it in a Stocky's stocks "tacticool" stock inlet for PTG DBM bottom metal(knock off of Badger M5 bottom metal). For a "cheap" 700 factory gun it shoots great.
 
How about a SRT 77/44? 300gr bullets made to expand at subsonic velocities.

But as far as the 300bo goes. I have a AAC barrel screwed on a r700. It runs just fine with the HS bottom metal. It ran just as well in a chassis with poly aics mags.
