Howa 1500 Blued 20" Threaded 7mm-08 Black + Nikko Stirling Panamax 3-9x40
Product Description
The Howa 1500 Blued 20" Threaded 7mm-08 Black rifle, paired with the Nikko Stirling Panamax 3-9x40 scope, delivers a reliable and accurate package for outdoor enthusiasts, hunters, and sporting shooters. This combination provides exceptional performance and durability in various conditions, making it an excellent choice for a wide range of shooting pursuits.
The Howa 1500 rifle is engineered for precision and rugged dependability. It features a robust, early model Sako action with a one-piece forged bolt, ensuring enhanced strength and smooth operation. The design includes an easy strip-out firing pin assembly for straightforward cleaning and maintenance. A flat-bottom action provides superior bedding, complemented by an integral recoil lug that effectively transfers trunnion pull, contributing to consistent accuracy. This rifle is equipped with a crisp two-stage HACT (Howa Actuator Controlled Trigger) for a clean, predictable break and a three-position safety that allows the bolt to be opened and unloaded while the rifle remains on safe.
This model boasts a cold hammer-forged barrel and a steel forged bolt and receiver, all finished in a classic blued coating. The 20" barrel is threaded 1/2-20, ready for compatible accessories. The Hogue pillar-bedded overmolded stock provides superior fit, function, and accuracy, making this an excellent out-of-the-box rifle for both hunting and target shooting. Howa 1500 rifles are renowned for their precision, often delivering sub-MOA performance (1 inch or less at 100 yards with premium factory ammunition).
