Key Features
Precision-Scaled Mini Action
The core of this rifle is the Howa Mini Action, scaled specifically for cartridges like the .223 Remington. This design translates to a shorter bolt throw, reducing manipulation time and weight, without compromising the inherent strength and rigidity characteristic of the Howa 1500 system. The receiver features an integral recoil lug, enhancing structural integrity and promoting accuracy.
Optimized Barrel System
Chambered in .223 Remington, this rifle utilizes a cold hammer-forged barrel, a manufacturing process known to improve bore uniformity and material density, contributing to extended barrel life and consistent accuracy. The barrel is factory-threaded (typically 1/2″-28 TPI) to facilitate direct integration of muzzle devices, including suppressors or compensators, enabling sound mitigation or recoil management as operational requirements dictate.
Durable Ergonomic Stock
Equipped with a robust synthetic stock in an Olive Drab finish, this rifle provides a durable, weather-resistant platform. The material composition and ergonomic design enhance grip and shooter comfort, even in challenging environmental conditions, while maintaining a lightweight profile conducive to field portability.
Integrated Trigger System
The rifle incorporates Howa’s HACT (Howa Actuator Controlled Trigger) two-stage trigger system. This design provides a clean, crisp break with minimal overtravel, facilitating precise shot placement. The trigger mechanism is user-serviceable for weight adjustment within specified parameters, allowing for individual shooter preference.
Performance Guarantee
This Howa Mini Action rifle is backed by the manufacturer’s 1 MOA guarantee, ensuring a high level of precision performance when utilizing quality ammunition and proper shooting technique. This guarantee underscores the rifle’s inherent accuracy potential from the factory.
