The Howa M1500 barreled action in .308 Winchester has a carbon fiber wrapped 24" heavy-contour target barrel to help you get the maximum performance out of this versatile cartridge without suffering the weight penalty of traditional, all-steel target barrels. Fully assembled with the barrel chambered, installed, and properly headspaced, this action eliminates the most difficult work in "building" your own bolt action rifle. Install it in the stock or chassis system of your choice, and you have high-quality custom rifle at an amazingly affordable cost.
Like all Howa M1500 actions, this .308 Winchester version includes a forged one-piece bolt body with two locking lugs and an integral bolt handle. The bolt face is precisely squared to the barrel chamber for excellent contact with the receiver recess. An M16-style extractor ensures reliable, positive extraction. A full-length bottom metal with hinged floorplate, magazine box, mag spring, and front/rear action screws are part of the package. Receiver is drilled and tapped for a scope base. Other features include:
- Heavy-contour yet LIGHTWEIGHT carbon-fiber wrapped target barrel
- Muzzle brake / flash suppressor 5/8"-24 tpi muzzle threads (cap included)
- Tough matte black Cerakote® finish
- Two-stage trigger with 3-position safety
A high-quality target barrel needs to be matched to a precision trigger, which is exactly what Howa did here. You get their HACT two-stage trigger that delivers a light (more accurately "de-lightful"!), consistent pull, and a crisp let-off. The "Howa Actuator Controlled Trigger" has a uniquely configured sear and precision-cut contact surfaces, so creep is entirely eliminated. The three-position safety allows the bolt to be completely locked and also enables the action to be unloaded while on safe. ALL of this adds up to nearly AR-15-like modularity and ease of assembly in a traditional bolt action platform! FFL required for purchase.
