Key Features
Howa 1500 Barreled Action
At the core is the Howa 1500 short-throw bolt action, recognized for its integral recoil lug and M-16 style extractor, which collectively ensure reliable feeding and extraction. The receiver is precision-machined from forged steel, contributing to the system’s structural integrity and consistent lock-up. The 22-inch cold hammer-forged barrel maintains tight tolerances, facilitating superior accuracy and longevity. This barrel profile is configured for balanced handling and effective heat dissipation during sustained use.
Hogue Overmolded Stock System
The rifle features a Hogue Overmolded stock, constructed from a durable, glass-reinforced polymer that is subsequently overmolded with a soft, tactile rubber. This design significantly enhances grip in adverse weather conditions and effectively mitigates felt recoil. Its ergonomic contours promote consistent shooter interface, thereby optimizing control and reducing fatigue during extended field engagements.
Howa Actuator Controlled Trigger (HACT)
Equipped with the Howa Actuator Controlled Trigger (HACT) system, this rifle provides a crisp, two-stage trigger pull. This design minimizes creep and overtravel, delivering a clean and predictable break essential for precise shot execution. The HACT system is user-adjustable, allowing for specific pull weight customization to meet individual shooter preferences and operational requirements.
.30-06 Springfield Chambering
The .30-06 Springfield caliber offers substantial ballistic performance, making it a versatile choice for hunting deer, elk, bear, and other large game. Its established track record for long-range energy retention and accuracy provides a reliable solution for diverse shooting scenarios.
