Need your opinions on these two Legacy Sports International Howa rifles. Same barreled actions but completely different stocks. I will only be using the rifle for bench shooting out to 900 yards.
 
I have the bravo. I like that the backbone on the bravo runs all the way down the length of the action/forend area. When I put a bipod on it, the only flex is in the bipod itself. Looking at the HCR/Accurate-Mag chassis.... I don’t trust the forend portion. That’s just me. Also, not a big fan of the luth-ar stock.

With all that said, go with which ever one speaks to you the most. You’re the one that’s got to shoot it.

I was looking for the Bravo with 26" heavy barrel in 6.5 Creedmoor but was not able to find one at the time. Found the HCR for $859 on sale and jumped on it. Very happy with it. I like the Luth-AR stock and have it on several of my AR's also. The only thing I don''t like is the plastic mag-well trigger guard conversion - sure wish it was metal. The gun shoots sub 1/2 moa with factory Hornady match 140gr ELD's
