Just purchased a howa 1500 Randy Newberg edition in 308. Took it to the range and the barrel is touching the stock (stock is clearly not aligned correctly) and shooting all over the place. When I contacted them for warranty work was advised minimum of 3 months because of an issue they had with...
Any recommendation on an elk processor in/around Colorado Springs area? Have a CO muzzleloader hunt near Gunnison and this would be on the way back home if successful. Any recommendations are appreciated...
