I have a Howa 1500 Thumbhole sporter long action 30-06 and I'm looking for a A1 stock, anybody have any ideas?
I was wanting a H-S but can not find one, found a B&C but only for a SA.
I'm not to fond of the thumbhole stock that came with the gun.

Manners will inlet for the Howa LA, that or get in touch with Pete Lincoln. Pete also indicated to me that a magazine system for the long action is in the works.

Got a T4A on order and can't wait for it to get here. Interesting enough, my Howa project started out as a budget build. I bought the Howa with the misunderstanding that B&C made one of their tactical medalist stocks for the long action. After finding out I was wrong about the B&C and looking at the options available, I rationalized the purchase of a Manners T4 as being just a couple hundred over the original budget, so what the heck why not. Then I figured, a stock that is being used in conjuction with a canted scope base can sometimes be hard to get a good cheek weld on, so why not order the T4a with the Terry cross sheek piece? And when a guy is spending that much already, you might as well add in the adjustable lengh of pull right?

So long story short, I missed on my initial budget by quite a bit.
