Howa started in 1907 as Toyoda's Loom Works, Ltd merged with Showa Heavy Industries, Ltd and was renamed Howa Heavy Industries, Ltd. During the WWⅡ, Howa Heavy Industries, Ltd had been manufacturing Arisaka Rifles Type 99, parts of infantry rifles type 38, artillery, machine guns, bullets, and parts for airplanes.

hey mate, I know its a long time after the post. I have the same rifle and was having extraction problems with PPU cases. My local gunsmith (who is excellent) had a look at it for me and found that the extractor did not have sufficient clearance to get all the way over the rim of the cartridge. He put some extra clearance on it. I fired it today approx 100 rounds of PPU and it didn't have an issue. Groupings have been rubbish though so thanks for the loading suggestions. I will give them a try and hopefully will get better results.

I agree, maybe a learner, but it's like driving or any other skill like catching a ball, it should be instinct. I was lucky, out on a farm safety was drummed into us, then we could shoot all we wanted too. Some practice between duck seasons too, not me, no money to waist doing that. And I dont miss many, once you learn it, it's always is the same thing. I was sharp in my teens, I shot bunnies running with a 22. Maybe you either have the skill or not. Scopes are easy too. Best skill is learn your yards by looking. I could shoot a fox in the spotlight and predict the yards within 1-3 yards. Skill I think should be learnt. Predict a tree or something, then step it out. We had no range finders, except our eyes and brains. I could tell your ex army. By the way you talk. Keep up the good work, I like how you talk, like we are in the conversation with you over a beer.

I am very OCD with polishing tools and reloading gear. I use the stuff made by Mothers. Not sure if they do but Tikka should just sell barrelled actions like Howa does, with or without triggers.
@gobangs1117
@gobangs1117 14 күн бұрын
It took years for the plastic bolt shroud to be replaced with an alloy one so it would appear that they do listen but are not willing to make wholesale changes. One thing I forgot to mention was the difference in performance between stocks, while I was getting muzzle lift with the Tikka stock the MDT Field Stock mostly slides straight back which is what I was hoping for. I have no idea why they won't sell barreled actions or actions alone. Someone said that their barrels are threaded and glued in because I have seen videos of people whilst using the correct tooling having to employ 3 foot extensions in an attempt to unscrew the barrel.

Those stocks really remind me of the tikka ultimate precision rifle stock how rigid would you say the front end is for a bipod? And I agree about the tikka triggers come to think of it all factory triggers. I think the advantage of thetikka trigger is it’s quite easy to tune a little bit of polishing and a trigger spring.
@gobangs1117
@gobangs1117 19 күн бұрын
While the block is not full length the front end is still very rigid, totally OK for a bipod and it's already got the M Lock slots on all 3 sides. I personally think that the Howa HACT Trigger a is better candidate for tuning (honing and spring reduction). It's all held together with E clips and pretty simple to work with. I think overall that the stock is a winner, the Tikka stock does not even have pillars much less a bedding block/s which is very disappointing indeed and it's butt ugly. Cheers.

I’m quite fond of the standard Hougue synthetic on the HOWA rifles; probably the best of the “cheapies”. I dropped a HOWA 308 into my Field Stock to shoot off a tripod with some Arca Rail, and it seems to do the business. I like the HOWA HACT trigger as I can do the trigger with the $22 GUNBLOKE spring kit. I’m also “unassisted and flying solo” on my channel, so I can give an honest review of different things without fear of losing anything or missing out.

I know I’m late to the party but wanted to add my story. I’m in the States and have 2 310’s for many years. I learned early on the only way i would find joy was to secure proper dies and bullet mold…and they came from down under. Trust me, I paid dearly over twenty years ago as CBE and Simplex very proud of their wares. But paid it I did and results worth it. I use 32-20 brass which both of my cadets accept no problem. The mold I bought from CBE makes a 130 grain heeled bullet. I shoot them unsized and lubed with liquid alox over ten grains of 2400 powder. Works for me.

Sorry for not replying earlier but I've been working in the outback. Nice to read about your experience. Whilst not being a torrent of data, the knowledge I have gained from Cadet shooters like yourself has been most useful to myself. I've recently had advice that Boyne Bullet Company makes projectiles that fit the Bertram Brass cases so I'll have to get some and not have to go through the convoluted process I currently am hampered with. You know I really have to test out my chamber with 32-20 ammo just out of interest. Thanks for commenting.

I grabbed a used timber stock HOWA 30-06 off Used & Abused guns. It shot OK, but I stuck it in a synthetic Hogue stock, and that got it going. 150 SST’S with 59.0 grains of 2209 or 50.5 grains of 2208, and 165 SST’s with 48.5 grains of 2208. The 2208 actually makes it quite tame to shoot. And I agree 100% with what you say about the HOWA rifles, and the drop-out magazines. If you like the HACT trigger, just do a trigger spring conversion with the trigger spring from GUNBLOKE on Fleabay. Costs about $22 and is a simple job. I’ve done a KZfaq video on it. Good vids Mate.

Getting .3 inch at fifty meters with win power points 40gr jacketed hollow point it's in a txps got a nice rail and Warne maxima rings tightened up groups a bit and torqued up good ,heaps better than the ring base combo I got when I bought it. Dont u like dry holes. Running all my 22 on win power points they all shoot good with them not the best groups I can get but really good ejough that they all run ok with the power points. I really don't wanna have to run different ammo for each 22. It's a good gun and works better than u would think once it shot itself in.
