I'm away on holiday at the moment, will take a look when home which will be another week. Talk to Simon, he knows what I'm looking for for my Handi rifle. I'd need to make sure I could get a thread adapter to make it fit a 18X1 .300 WSM but if all those bits work I'll have it.

Handi Rifle is 5/8" UNEF but the standard Predator8 (200mm tube) is far too long to fit it.

I use a Predator8 on mine with the compact (112mm) tube set. Even then the standard forend is still about 4mm too long and hits the moderator rear bushing before the mod is fully tightened.

You could chop a bit off the forend or remove the mod's rear plastic bushing, on mine I use an ATI tacticool stock, the forend is about 35mm shorter and has more than enough room for the moderator to fit.

Maybe a swap for a scope of similar value to go on a .223
