Key Features
Precision Howa 1500 Mini Action
The proprietary Howa 1500 Mini Action provides a shorter bolt throw and reduced overall receiver length, specifically optimized for smaller cartridges like the 6.5 Grendel. This design contributes to a lighter firearm and faster cycling, while maintaining the inherent rigidity and reliability characteristic of the Howa 1500 series.
6.5 Grendel Chambering
Chambered in 6.5 Grendel, this rifle capitalizes on a cartridge known for its ballistic efficiency and moderate recoil. The 6.5 Grendel offers a flat trajectory and effective terminal performance, making it a versatile choice for medium-game hunting and extended-range precision within its design parameters.
Cold Hammer-Forged Barrel
A 22-inch cold hammer-forged barrel ensures consistent bore concentricity and long-term durability. The cold hammer-forging process increases material density, enhancing accuracy potential and barrel life. The muzzle is threaded to facilitate the integration of muzzle brakes or sound suppression devices.
Howa Actuator Controlled Trigger (HACT)
The Howa Actuator Controlled Trigger (HACT) system is a two-stage match-grade trigger designed to provide a crisp, clean break with minimal overtravel. This adjustable system enhances shooter control and promotes repeatable accuracy, critical for precise shot placement.
Detachable Magazine System
This rifle features a reliable detachable box magazine, facilitating rapid reloads and secure ammunition management. Standard capacity for the 6.5 Grendel Mini Action is 10 rounds, ensuring ample firepower for sustained engagements or multiple follow-up shots.
Integrated Scope Mounting
The receiver is machined with integral scope mounting bases, allowing for direct attachment of optic rings or compatible bases without the need for additional adapters, ensuring a secure and low-profile optics platform.
