Description

The Howa 1500 is a bolt action rifle in 7.62 x 39mm with a 20" barrel, a 1:9.45 twist and 5-round capacity.

This barrel length is the usual compromise: enough to develop most of the cartridge's velocity while still being manageable to carry all day, and short enough that a suppressor on the end does not make it unwieldy. That is the standard twist for this cartridge, and it stabilizes the bullet weights most factory ammunition is loaded with.

The 7.62 x 39mm is commonly chosen for range practice, competition and defense. The most widely available centerfire handgun round, which keeps practice affordable and ammunition easy to find.

At the foundation of the Fence Line Series lies the Howa 1500 barreled action. Crafted in Japan by Howa Machinery with over a century of firearms heritage.
