Howa 1500 Mini Action Features The Howa 1500 Mini Action uses a chamber and bolt that are 12 percent shorter than a regular short action resulting in a noticeably shorter bolt throw that lets shooters cycle the action and get back on target faster during follow-up shots. The 1:9.45 twist rate stabilizes .22 ARC projectiles across a range of bullet weights for versatile ammunition selection in the field. A drawn steel barrel construction gives the rifle a durable accuracy-focused foundation that Howa rifles are known for. The threaded 22 barrel with 5/8x24 thread pitch accepts a suppressor or muzzle brake giving hunters the option to manage recoil and sound signature. The High Grade DLX Turkish Walnut stock brings genuine natural wood grain and classic styling that stands apart from the synthetic stocks common on modern hunting rifles. A two-stage match trigger provides a distinct take-up followed by a clean break giving hunters precise control over shot timing in the field. The three-position safety offers an intermediate bolt-unlock position for safely cycling the action without disengaging the safety fully. Sling swivel studs are installed for quick attachment of a carry sling and the drilled and tapped stainless steel receiver is ready for a scope base to complete a traditional walnut-stocked hunting rig.
