The Howa Model 1500 rifle is built upon a reliable action, featuring a one-piece forged bolt for enhanced durability. Its firing pin assembly is designed for easy strip-out, simplifying cleaning and maintenance. The flat-bottom action provides superior bedding, complemented by an integral recoil lug that effectively manages trunnion pull. This rifle incorporates a crisp two-stage trigger and a three-position safety, allowing the bolt to be opened safely while the firearm remains on 'safe'.

An excellent choice for both hunting and target shooting, the Howa 1500 comes with a Hogue pillar-bedded overmolded stock, ensuring a superior fit, function, and accuracy. The combination of the high-precision Howa 1500 action and the ergonomic synthetic stock creates a lightweight, dependable rifle suitable for entry-level match shooting or general sporting use.

Each Howa 1500 rifle boasts a cold hammer-forged barrel, a robust steel forged bolt and receiver, the acclaimed HACT (Howa Actuator Controlled Trigger) two-stage trigger system, and a versatile three-position safety.

Stock Customisation: Any Howa 1500 Short Action rifle can be fitted with a shorter stock (available only in black). This option reduces the length of pull from 15 1/3" (39cm) to 13 3/4" (35cm). Please request this option online or in-store if you require a shorter stock.
