Howa Rifles

Howa 1500 rifles from Japan

For the money, probably the best firearm available today. The Howa 1500 rifle is simple in construction yet very strong. It's drilled receiver readily accepts Remington 700 furniture and all barrels are screwcut. The bolt can be disassembled by a simple twist for easy cleaning and trigger removal (not that they need replacing!) is by a single screw.

Simplicity, reliability and out of the box, blistering accuracy.

Howa's come as either barreled actions or complete rifles (by complete that means open the case, load it, aim it, fire it and tweak the sights for your individual eyes. We boresight every rifle first for a rough 100 yard zero). If you need to, we can set the scope up for individual comfort based on what position you'll be shooting mostly in.

First off, Barrelled Actions

Howa rifles come in either blued or a number of different Ceracote colours in 4 basic formats. Split into two groups:
1500
You have the 1500 action in either long or short action with a Varmint or Sporter barrel
Mini Action
Slightly shorter action than the 1500, making itideally suited to the small calibres listed below and therefore superb for hunting. Comes with Varmint & Sporter barrels.
 
Each section has appropriate stocks available to each type of model.

1500 Varmint Profile
Heavy barrel, best suited to range work where high round counts in short time frames are the order of the day. Barrels come in either 20", 24" or 26" lengths and are all screw cut 5/8"x18 UNF or 5/8"x24 UNEF. There are a small number of Fluted barrel options with a Varmint contour too.

If you can't find the right calibre/colour combo, never fear! they can be done by the distributors as a special for you.
