@MikeW,
I didn't really notice BHBFX until I saw the SEC filing for the Broadview Opportunity Fund being reorganized. After reading about the initial reorganization filings, I started to research what Madison Funds were available and how they were…
@MikeW
BHBFX is the "Y" class of this fund offered by Madison. If you want to get in cheaper than $25K as required by Madison, you can purchase the Broadview Opportunity Fund. When the Broadview Opportunity Fund is reorganized into Madison Small …

I found the summary prospectus from the Crossingbridge Funds website. Institutional class is $250…
I thought RPHYX was open on a limited basis?

Purchased MSCFX after it made 2018 distributions. It is a small cap core fund. Also have PRDSX being a quant fund for growth.
If you don't care about expenses, WMICX (small cap core) has been on a tear the last several years.
