I looked at going the Howa and Ruger way as well, but with a new chassis stock.
I favored Ruger beacause I like the idea of using AR15 mags.
Regretfully, I ran into the mag issue using Howa, AICS mags and I backed off.
Further research led me to the MDT LSS-XL Gen 2 which would use AR15 mags with a Ruger American Predator 6.5G.
It is pricey but looks quite nice.

Thanks for the Boyd info, I'll check it out. Do you have the model?
