Anyone see this as a problem for a first build?

Howa gets good pub. They are nice actions.

What stock are you planning to use?

By the time things shake out, you may not be far from the pricing of a new Howa Bravo. Or keep the eyes peeled on the Classifieds for a lightly used one.
 
XLR Evolution + Howa barreled action is going to run more than the Howa Bravo. Unless you're set on using the XLR, I'd buy a Bravo and get to shooting.
