Howa Superlight Cerakoted Midnight Black Barrelled Action

The Howa Superlight Cerakoted Midnight Black Barrelled Action is engineered as the ultimate foundation for a precision ultralight rifle. Designed to bridge the gap between Howa's popular Mini Action and their standard Short Action, this Superlight platform strips away unnecessary bulk, delivering an incredibly light, agile, and accurate core for your custom build. It’s an ideal choice for hunters seeking a high-performance, lightweight barreled action in New Zealand, often referred to as a "howa superlite barreled action" or "howa superlite nz" by enthusiasts.

At its core, this Howa Superlight features a newly engineered, scaled-down machined receiver paired with a forged, fluted bolt. Every detail is considered for weight reduction without compromising safety or strength, including a hollowed-out bolt knob. The action incorporates a reliable M-16 style extractor and plunger ejector for flawless cycling, while the firing pin can be removed entirely without tools in the field, simplifying maintenance.

This barrelled action is fitted with a slender, cold hammer-forged barrel and finished entirely in a highly durable Midnight Black Cerakote. This premium ceramic coating provides exceptional corrosion and abrasion resistance, ensuring your rifle is protected in demanding outdoor environments. The muzzle comes factory-threaded (1/2x28 TPI) and is instantly ready to accept your preferred lightweight suppressor or muzzle brake, enhancing its versatility for various hunting scenarios, including those favouring a "howa alpine" setup.

• Scaled-Down Superlight Action: A unique action footprint, significantly lighter and slimmer than a standard short action, specifically engineered for ultralight rifle builds.
• Premium Cerakote Finish: The entire barrelled action is coated in Midnight Black Cerakote, providing superior protection against rust, scratches, and harsh weather conditions.
• M-16 Style Extractor: Ensures incredibly reliable, positive extraction and ejection of spent cartridges, even in freezing or dirty conditions.
• Tool-Less Firing Pin Removal: The bolt assembly allows for instant, tool-free field stripping, making cleaning and maintenance incredibly easy.
• Suppressor Ready: The exceptionally lightweight barrel features a 1/2x28 thread pitch and includes a thread protector, ready for immediate silencer integration.
• Integral Safety Features: The forged bolt features integral pressure vent holes to safely deflect gases away from the shooter in the rare event of a case rupture.

Please note that this is a barrelled action only. It requires a compatible Howa Superlight stock, such as the Stocky's Carbon Fibre Superlite stock, and appropriate bottom metal and magazine to complete your rifle build.
