Howa 1500 Barreled Action
Product Description
The Howa 1500 Barreled Action provides an exceptional foundation for building your custom precision rifle or hunting rig. This component offers the renowned Howa 1500 action paired with a premium hammer-forged barrel, allowing you to integrate it directly into your preferred aftermarket chassis or premium stock (such as MDT, KRG, or Boyds). This approach ensures you invest only in the components that precisely match your shooting discipline and upgrade path.
Globally recognised for its inherent accuracy and robust durability, the core of the Howa 1500 features a forged, flat-bottom receiver with an integral recoil lug, ensuring exceptional bedding stability. The one-piece forged bolt includes dual locking lugs and a heavy-duty M16-style extractor, guaranteeing flawless feeding and extraction, even in challenging outdoor environments.
Beyond its rugged construction, the Howa 1500 comes standard with the highly acclaimed HACT (Howa Actuator Controlled Trigger). This two-stage trigger system provides a crisp, clean break with zero creep, straight from the factory. Coupled with a versatile three-position safety that allows you to safely cycle the bolt and unload the chamber while the firearm remains on "safe," the Howa 1500 barreled action is a premium, precision-engineered core, ready for your custom rifle build.
-
Forged Construction: Features a forged flat-bottom receiver with an integral recoil lug and a one-piece forged bolt for maximum strength and bedding stability.
-
HACT 2-Stage Trigger: The Howa Actuator Controlled Trigger provides a crisp, light, and predictable two-stage pull, drastically improving accuracy without the need for aftermarket trigger upgrades.
-
3-Position Safety: Allows the shooter to lock the bolt down for stalking through dense bush, or safely cycle live ammunition through the action while the trigger remains disengaged.
-
M16-Style Extractor: A reliable, heavy-duty extractor combined with a plunger-style ejector guarantees positive extraction of both spent brass and unfired rounds.
-
Hammer-Forged Barrel: Premium, cold hammer-forged barrels available in multiple profiles (Sporter, Heavy/Varmint) and lengths to suit everything from lightweight bush hunting to long-range precision shooting.
-
Unmatched Customisation: Compatible with a massive global aftermarket of stocks, chassis systems, and scope bases built specifically for the Howa 1500 / Weatherby Vanguard footprint.
