The only thing I don't like about my Howa Oryx 6.5 GR is the proprietary magazine. Does anyone know if there are other options besides this super cheap feeling turd?I have the Howa 1500 mini action and love it.
I bought the heavy barreled action from Brownells and put it in a Boyds Prairie Hunter stock.
I also replaced the cheap plastic factory trigger guard/ mag release with an aluminum unit from DIP. She's not light but is a shooter.
Factory magazines are the only shortcoming.

I will check it out. I sure hope other mags will fit it. The one supplied by Howa is a magazine only its mother could love.Proprietary? Isn’t it the MDT mag? I guess it’s using a spacer for the shorter Grendel round?
the Oryx chassis will take any AICS magazine. I use the MAGPUL, but also like the Accurate steel mags. I believe this will work & already has the spacer.

Pretty sure they are proprietary to the rifle unless you get the Jefferson bottom metal that adapts to the CZ mags or one of the internal mag conversions.The only thing I don't like about my Howa Oryx 6.5 GR is the proprietary magazine.

I feel the same way about the Savage proprietary magazines. I have also heard many complaints about other makers mags as well.The only thing I don't like about my Howa Oryx 6.5 GR is the proprietary magazine. Does anyone know if there are other options besides this super cheap feeling turd?
