Howa 1500 mini
Bought this to build out a .222 REM target gun. Just what I was looking for and it came very quickly from Brownells. Great quality, will be fun to make this build

Good stuff!
I added this Howa barreled action into an MDT Oryx chassis. It has been a blast. Accuracy has been decent with cheap ammo. I will soon be testing it out using some good ammo. I had to call the Brownell tech hotline and received all of the answers I needed to get this rifle put together.

Very happy!
This is my first time building my own gun. I wanted this caliber for the light recoil, cheaper ammo, and for long(er) range. My thinking was that the 22" barrel would give me a little more velocity, and thus a little more distance. I put this in an MDT LSS chassis, and I'm not disappointed. So far I have about 80 rounds through the barrel and have found the Hornady Varmint factory loads to be the most accurate, with a 5 shot group of .85 at 100 yards. My issue with the barrel is that it heats up quickly. If I could redo this build, i would have gone with the 20" heavy barrel. The biggest con to this build is buying extra Howa propietary magazines at $30 apiece. With all of that said, I'm very pleased with this Howa barreled action and it has been worth the money.

The barreled action was easy to get ready to build the gun.
Howa mini action 223 22" barrel
Ordered one to make a new light weight rifle for my wife for this year's shooting of gophers. I didn't think it would shoot light bullets very well being 8 twist. Shoots 60/55/50 all under an inch 5 shoot groups. A pleasant surprise.. Trigger was cut done 3/4 of one coil to get it down to 2 lbs. one oz. and a very nice trigger love that action on a blue Boyds stock a pretty shooter all in one... Just wish Howa would bring back the same action in 222 with a 9 twist I'd buy one right now.....
