Product Overview
An Affordable Bolt-Action Perfect for Suppression
Howa's line of Mini-Action rifles offers a number of unique option for today's shooters, allowing them to have precision platforms tailored to calibers more-commonly seen in ARs and other modern sporting rifles. One of the unique options seen is the Howa Model 1500 Mini-Action in 300 BLK, complete with a threaded heavy barrel.
Since the Howa Model 1500 Mini-Action is a bolt-action platform, there's no reciprocating bolt that can produce loud noises during firing, and the lack of a gas system means there's no reliability issue to confront when using subsonic ammunition, one of the highlights of the 300 BLK chambering.
Barrel twist rate: 1:7-inch
The threaded muzzle invites the use of a suppressor, meaning that this could be the perfect rifle platform for an ultra-quiet bolt gun for close-range hunting and shooting.
Howa 1500 Barreled Actions are the perfect platform for a quality precision rifle build, at an affordable cost. Every Howa Barreled Action features a hammer forged barrel, bottom metal and precise HACT two stage trigger. The receiver and bolt are forged steel, with the bolt featuring an integral bolt handle. Bolt faces are square to the barrel chamber and bolt faces have excellent contact with the receiver recesses. M16 style extractor ensure positive extraction and function. Factory barrels are hammer forged with headspace set to exacting standards. The HACT two stage trigger has a crisp, light and consistent pull. The included 3 position safety allows for the bolt to be locked, as well as put on safe when unloaded. Scope bases are available from a variety of quality manufacturers.
