The Howa Mini Action bolt action rifle in 7.62x39 calibre is a superb choice for hunters and sport shooters seeking a compact yet powerful firearm. This Howa Mini Action rifle is designed for reliability and precision in diverse outdoor conditions, making it an excellent addition to any collection in New Zealand and beyond.

Based on an early model Sako action, the Howa Mini Action features a one-piece forged bolt and an easy-to-strip firing pin assembly for straightforward cleaning and maintenance. The flat bottom action ensures superior bedding, while an integral recoil lug effectively transfers trunion pull, contributing to consistent accuracy. This model is equipped with a two-stage HACT match trigger, known for its crisp break and adjustability, enhancing shot placement for both target shooting and hunting scenarios. A three-position safety allows the bolt to be opened with the safety engaged, providing an added layer of security during field use.

The Howa 1500 series, which includes this Mini Action, boasts a cold hammer-forged barrel and a robust steel forged bolt and receiver, ensuring durability and consistent performance. This rifle is designed for superior fit, function, and accuracy, making it a dependable choice for various outdoor pursuits. The 17" stainless steel barrel is threaded 14x1, offering excellent weather resistance and compatibility with various muzzle devices. This "bare" configuration means the rifle comes without a scope or additional accessories, allowing you to customise it to your exact preferences.
