Howa 22 inch 223 Remington Pepper Laminate Hunter Overview

Howa Laminated Rifle Stocks are designed to free-float the barrel for maximum accuracy and models are available with the proper clearance for barrels. The Laminated Hunter Stock is a great option for hunters with a more vertical pistol grip which makes this an extremely user friendly rifle stock. The laminated adhesive and resin constructed stock with optional aluminum pillar blocks, weigh in at only 1.3 Kilogram. The slightly raised cheek-piece and comfortable length of pull of 352 mm on the Platinum Shape stock makes it a very popular option among hunters.

Howa M-1500 Features
The Howa M-1500 features a dual locking lug action based on an old-world platform using modern thinking, taking you to a new level in accuracy. The bolt action design is from a Sako based action, providing you with the same action type as some of the best custom built rifles, but at a fraction of the cost. One of the safest and strongest bolt actions on the market, the bolt features a one-piece body and M16 type spring loaded extractor. The action length is also matched to the cartridge size of the caliber.
The Howa M-1500 Models provide you with a three position safety. The safety is easy to operate and allows you to unload the rifle while it is still in safety mode. All Howa M-1500 bolt actions are drilled and tapped to accept one or two piece bases for the mounting of optics. The free-floating hammer forged barrel has no sights for a modern look and finish. The increased diameter of the barrel will result in increased weight and less recoil. Slower heating of the barrel will also take place during a succession of shots. As with all other Howa M-1500 models, the Howa Varmint model has a twist rate that is carefully selected for each individual caliber to optimize bullet performance and accuracy.
All Howa Varmint rifles include an adjustable Howa HACT 2 Stage Match Trigger. The Howa Actuator Controlled Trigger system eliminates trigger creep and lightens the trigger pull. The HACT System fits all Howa M-1500 rifles that were previously equipped with Howa’s three position safety trigger group.
Boyds Pepper Laminated Rifle Stock Features
The Boyds Laminated Rifle Stock comes with a durable, rubber recoil pad and a sling swivel stud already mounted.

The ergonomic control of a pistol grip and time-tested elements of a raised cheek-piece and comfortable length of pull make the Hardwood Laminate a fantastic value for money stock.
Reliable and built to last, this stock will help improve accuracy, target re-acquisition times and firearm control. The additional stiffness and stability will improve on the accuracy that Howa are known for.
