Howa M1500 Fence Line 308 Win 22" Scorched Earth Camo Rifle

There is a reason 308 Win keeps turning up in new rifles decades after it was introduced. Ammunition sits on every shelf that stocks centerfire rounds, bullet weights run from light varmint loads to heavy deep penetrators, and the case is short enough to feed smoothly out of a compact action. Howa's Fence Line puts it behind a 22" hammer forged barrel with a threaded muzzle and a Flat Dark Earth Cerakote finish over the barreled action.

The Scorched Earth Camo stock is fixed synthetic, so there is nothing to work loose and nothing to swell when the weather turns. Inside, the Howa 1500 barreled action carries an accuracy guarantee of 1" or better at 100 yards and a HACT two stage trigger that most owners leave exactly as it came. The bolt lifts 90 degrees, runs on dual locking lugs, and uses a spring loaded M16 style extractor. A three position safety handles unloading and transport without forcing the rifle off safe to cycle it, which is the detail hunters notice on the second day of a trip rather than the first. The receiver arrives drilled and tapped for bases. Howa has been building this action since 1979 and it has outlasted plenty of designs that came after it.
