The Howa is a great action to rebarrel for a accurate gun build I have re barreled several of them. They do not need any action trueing the machining on them is excellent and true and straight. They get bad rep in the US because they have metric threads. And most gunsmiths in the US don't like to cut metric threads but it is very simple if you understand how to cut metric threads on a English Lathe. You cant beat them for the amount they sell for.

Hi Gavin I have a howa in 6.5 and felt the trigger to be too heavy after talking to my local gun Smith he said you can remove one of the adjusting screws for the trigger and replace the factory spring with a lighter one . I did this and it made a world of difference. Best group to date was .330 with 123gr lapua bullets. Howa barreled actions are great .

I have built two guns just like you described. Both with KRG Bravo stocks. First gun was 24 in. heavy barrel .308, second was 26 in heavy barrel 6.5 CM. First time at the range they both shot better than .8 MOA using Federal Gold Metal Match. Currently working on hand loads for both of them. So far .308 is liking the Hornady 178 ELD-M with Varget powder. The 6.5 is liking several bullets, 142 SMK, and 147 Hornady ELD-M. Working with several powders for the 6.5 H-4350, Hybrid 100-V, and IMR-4451. Can't wait to see how your gun shoots. Keep up the good work.

Thanks for the video series. I watched the follow up as well? I waffled between the 6.5 CM and 6mm CM and decided on the 6mm for less recoil and better shot follow up. So with my Howa 1500 in 6mm CM with factory ammo, what do you feel the minimum barrel length is (shooting suppressed) without sacrificing accuracy and complete burn? Have you done any work up? I'm not trying to build a "truck gun", nor will I be competing in a PRS. So I'm not looking at super short, or long, but that sweet spot length (w/ suppressor) w/o additional length.

I have been trying to get a Howa 1500 22-250 and a .223 mini action to shoot I have glass bedded both of them changed triggers torqued them reloaded lots of bullet weights and powders. They are driving me nuts I never had this much trouble getting guns dialed in. It started first with a defective box of Barnes Varmint Granades once I discovered this I swapped bullets and went to work 55gr Vmax did pretty well. but have struggled with 55 gr Speer TNT and have given up on them. Hornady 52gr ELD's no good. At this time August-Sept. of 2021 It is hard to get more than a box of 100 of any bullets and gun powder is hard to acquire. So when I was able to buy three hundred Speer TNT's I was thrilled I am out of 55gr Vmax the only bullet that seems to group in these rifles. I was fortunute to get some CFE223 powder. I have used Xterm. RL 15. TAC. W748 was promissing. Then I saw that you gave up on your 6.5 Creedmoore Howa. Do I need to get a hold of Legacy Arms? I am thinking that setting the barrel back with a rechamber or going to a 1&12 twist barrel. I think Legacy needs to steep up on this one.

New hunter here, primarily hunting whitetail deer in pa. Been looking for “budget friendly” entry level rifles. Looked at Ruger American, savage to T/C compass and now howa 1500 specifically the last two because of their many features. However, I’ve heard hogue stocks on howa aren’t great but these opinions are from competitive shooters. Question is this: what stock should I buy with the howa 1500 barreled action for accurate 1-2 shot performance for hunting? Or would the included hogue stocks work just fine?

@Drgunzo616 Жыл бұрын

I know this reply is a year late but I think the hogue stocks are fine for hunting. Not sure what ranges you're normally shooting at deer but 200 yd would be a pretty long shot where I'm at in Michigan. Realistically I don't see myself taking any shots over 150 yd. And at those ranges accuracy gains from your stock aren't really going to add up to much in the real world.

And given Hornady's semi-recent fixation on mapping ballistics, I'm confident those drag numbers are at least sufficiently close, and if that's the case, this could be exciting.

Gavin I have heard that these are transferred as a receiver/other, not as a rifle. This would mean you would have to be 21+ years of age to pick one up. Can you confirm this?

The idea of offering a barreled action is great! It should be though, in a more popular caliber, and if you want a 6mm cartridge, it should be the .243 Winchester. After all, who doesn't like the venerable .243 Win? So you offer the .243 Win. in a fast twist barrel, say 1-8, or 1-9, and you can stabilize the heaviest of bullets, it's ballistically superior to the Creadmore cartridge, and there is a ready supply of brass and all other necessary components already on hand. Oh wait, I get it this is how the firearms companies can sell more stuff to us that we really don't need. Silly old me for thinking they have any agenda other than making money!

Brownells has you covered, for the HOWA 1500 barreled actions: 243 WIN #2 BARRELED ACTION STANDARD BARRELBLUE 243 WIN #1 BARRELED ACTION LW CERAKOTE GRAY

@Ultimatereloader 5 жыл бұрын

And 6mm has some big differences compared to 243 Win: 30 degree shoulder (compared to 20), shorter base-to-datum length for longer high-BC bullets. Shoot what you like! I like the enhancements that 6mm Creed offers.

@Ultimatereloader 5 жыл бұрын

And 6mm Creedmoor has a MUCH tighter freebore tolerance which makes it less jump sensitive, and less sensitive to other reloading factors. :)

The Howa 1500 would be better off of they designed it with a 60° bolt.

I dont get why you would spend that much on a gun, I bought a savage 7.62x51 for 350 dollars, I added a scope, sling and bipod it set me back about 475 dollars and I've had the gun for about ten years and I've taken deer with it at about 300 yards, I've taken silhouette targets at about 500 yards ( my eyes are getting old) I just dont see the purpose of buying a higher end rifle with expensive ammo that's hard to get. If there are any positives about buy such a rifle I would love to hear about them. Great video, I like hearing about the shooting sports.

Brownells sure isn't cheap. I realize they have expenses, but a $200 markup on a basic, blued barreled action in 308 for $525? I can buy a barreled howa action in a shit stock for 200 less than that, put on a decent scope and laminate stock for what just the barreled action costs at Brownell's. No thanks.
