The Mini Action receiver is 12 % shorter than a traditional short action, reducing both overall weight and bolt throw for faster cycling. Despite the compact size, the forged steel bolt’s one-piece design maintains strength and smooth operation.
The 20-inch heavy contour barrel is cold-hammer-forged for long service life and consistent harmonics. It is factory-threaded 5/8-24 and free-floated the full length of the forend, making it ready for a suppressor or other muzzle device without additional gunsmithing.
Howa’s two-stage HACT trigger offers a clean, predictable break that assists in achieving the company’s sub-MOA three-shot accuracy guarantee when quality match ammunition is used. A three-position safety allows the bolt to cycle while the rifle remains on safe.
The pillar-bedded synthetic stock features a brown/tan base with black spider-web texturing, a Monte Carlo comb for proper cheek weld, a recoil pad, and sling-swivel studs for field carry.
