I agree buying a Howa mini and going from there is more economical route than buying a Model 7 and converting it.
If a person already had a 223 Model 7 and wanted to convert it the expense shouldn't be too bad.
The internal box mag and follower that comes with the Model 7 should work as is, so the only expense would be barrel, open bolt face, and install M16 extractor.
Thanks for the input gentlemen.
Question WHY a M16 Extractor ? NEVER had a problem in dozens of Rem M7 - M700 rifles i have owned - Just Wondering as i'm thinking of a M7 Build too ! RJ
