I also have the Hawkeye stainless in 223, and I really like it. I replaced the trigger with a Timney and the stock with a Hogue, though the old trigger was Ok and the original stock was usable but not what I wanted. Let me tell ya...that rascal will shoot into a half inch (if I can do my part) with Sierra 65 grain GK and with Nosler 40 gr Ballistic Tips, and that was with the old trigger. I don't know if the new trigger, which is great, will help me shrink the groups any. We'll see.
