Howa M1500 223Rem 22 Woodland Full Rail$550.13
Availability: In Stock
The Howa M1500 in .243 Winchester with a 22-inch barrel is a versatile short-action rifle built for hunters and precision shooters who demand accuracy without excess weight. This Woodland Camo variant comes threaded and ready for a suppressor, topped with a factory-installed scope rail so you can mount glass immediately and get to the range. At 7 lbs 11 oz, the M1500 is light enough for a full day in the field yet rigid enough to deliver sub-MOA performance from a proven platform trusted by serious hunters across North America.
The .243 Winchester is a flat-shooting, mild-recoiling cartridge that excels for varmint and medium-game hunting, especially in the hands of a rifleman who values shot placement. Howa's short-action receiver is a tough, machined design paired with a forged bolt and a large integral front barrel lug for strength and consistency. The M1500's two-stage match trigger breaks cleanly and predictably, and the three-position safety keeps the rifle secure until the moment you need it. Tool-less firing pin removal makes field maintenance straightforward.
Reliability is engineered in: the M1500 uses an M-16 style extractor and ejector that have proven themselves across countless hunting seasons. Howa backs this rifle with a lifetime warranty and a sub-MOA accuracy guarantee—confidence that reflects the quality of the build. The HTI synthetic stock resists weather and abuse, and the factory-drilled receiver with 20 MOA scope rail means your optic will settle into a position optimized for long-range or precision shooting without you having to guess at mounting height.
Whether you're setting up a lightweight mountain rifle or a tack-driving varmint gun, the Howa M1500 .243 Woodland Full Rail delivers the performance and features hunters expect, without the premium price tag.
