I have the Howa heavy barrel in 243W. I was very unimpressed with the groupings. After inspection the action was moving in the plastic stock. To stop the stock flexing I filled the fore stock under the barrel with epoxy and the hollow butt section but still having the barrel floated. Then I bedded the recoil lug and tang with bedding compound now it shoots better than I can. Just a cheap way of solving the problem with the plastic Hogue stock flexing.
Cheers mate from Oz
I also live in Tennessee Bradley county to be exact.what use for deer hunting is a Remington 700 chamberd in 243. this setup works for me.i have recovered every deer that I have shot.and no bruised shoulder. 😊
Awesome
Howa has always been good for years and still is today. Their quality and price are excellent.
You must have more guns than the pawn shop you get them from . 😂
Not yet
Just swaps them back for the next 1 😂
@@WHOTEEWHO lol. I like that . “Not yet . “😂
A man needs to have goals!
Weekends were made for families and firearms 😊
Looks like a Howa 1500. I have this in 30-06. Awesome rifle.
Thanks for reviewing the Howa 1500 again . have had good results with it in 30-06 . thanks for the budget reviews . never have used an arken don't see them around the shops here in Canada. At least in my area I've not came across them. I like the howa 2stage trigger also.. Good.to.go right out the box. budget friendly ,accurate .. Lifetime warranty. . great bang for the buck
I love the howas
As, the group (though still good) opens up slightly as the barrel warms. We all know, not so much a factor for hunting rifles as the cold shot is the money shot. Another great video. Thanks.
Love my cheap savage 243. Easily puts a d33r down 1 shot and holds 0 yr through yr.
If you can find the no longer made Marlin XS-7 or XL-7 bolt action rifles, buy them. They are well made, accurate, and cheap.
Got a blue 308 and 3006 stainless Marlins. Great shooters. The 3006 is my favorite to shoot of all my rifles.
Yes! I threaded the barrel on a 270 for my wife and installed a custom brake. with 130 grain hornady she eats. Nice and lite rifles and definitely accurate. Only issue she has is while carrying it shouldered the bolt will open occasionally. A rubber band has helped.
Sako only.
Australia
@@glennllewellyn7369 Sako, Howa and CZ have amazing quality for the money.
@user-mj4pl2ky1d I have not priced them lately. Have to check the fun auction sites to find one. They were dirt cheap after Marlin discontinued them, around $250 - $275.
I bore sight by removing the bolt, looking down the barrel, centering a target at 50 yards in the bore and adjusting the scope to the bullseye. That gets me usually within 3 or 4 inches, on the paper at the worst.
When I was about 12 years old my father bought me a Winchester M70, heavy barrel, amazing trigger, bedded action, FF barrel in .243 to shoot woodchucks in the alfalfa fields along the river. I shot that rifle for 15 years, starting with Federal Premium 243V that was loaded with a 60gr Sierra HP. It shot quarter sized groups at 100 yards, but I couldnt afford the amount I was shooting so i started handloading using the same 60gr Sierra HPs. Those huge fields taught me a lot about shooting at distance.
Unfortunately, all that shooting with those light, fast bullets finally burnt the barrel out. I ended up trading it to a gunsmith who was going to rebarrel it.
It might be nice to add some Caldwell sand/ shot bags to your lead sled. I do and it really helps when shooting, especially the .30' calibers. Carry on Adam !
Sweet rig the .243win is an underestimated round imo it's got tons of boogie with low recoil 👍👍
Glad to see the 243 getting some love. The 243 is a great cartridge for new shooters that seems to be forgotten. I would think with some more rounds this rifle would get some better groups. It seems like the stainless barrels take a little more break in. Another great video.
Hey! Yup next video is an ammo test with this thing to test more factory ammo
You moved the bloody rifle when you put the mod back on ! Shoddy work my friend! But the principle is spot on ! ❤️🇬🇧🏴
The federal powershock and Hornady American whitetail are cheap accurate rounds for .243.
Found this channel a few weeks ago when i bought a 7mm-08. Now i need a 243 now too
Appreciate you watching!
Similar!
I NEED a 243…because reasons…
Australia
Always amazed you can get the same ammo type in all the different calibers. Getting a replacement box of something you like around here starts a whole new treasure hunt.
Howa 1500's are great rifles. My .243 didn't care much for the Core Lokts. It did however love the Federal 95 gr. Fusion factory loads.
.5 to .75 inch groups all day.
Deer hated them though!
🦌🦌🦌
Luv The 243!
Me too
Many people underestimate the .243 very versatile round. If I could only choose one bolt gun being from the midwest hands down it would be.243.
Another good honest out of the box review, keep it up WTW
Thanks for watching
I agree, still very affordable also there is a break in process for the barrel before you get the magical accuracy out of this!
I like it. Thanks for watching!
Had a bad experience with a 270 not shooting MOA. Sent it back and took 7 months to rectify the situation. I know they are good rifles, but the customer service leaves a lot to be desired. Really wanting the Super Deluxe in 30-06. Just a bit nervous.
Great show 💯😁💯😁💯💯 and thanks for the info 😁👌👌👌
Thanks for watching
Should get and test the mossberg mvp patrol rifle in 308! Looks like a great truck rifle for the mountains.
Bloody awesome rifles the howa 1500 , have a very good reputation down here in AUS 🇦🇺
Awesome video.. I have a savage model 16 chambered in 243 WIN and have taken a few deer and coyotes with it already. Just bought a savage 6.5 CM however that I’m looking to make my new hunting rifle. The semi auto Browning Mk2 chambered in 30-06 that I own has way too much recoil to remain accurate haha
Glad to see someone shoe some love on the 243. Im tired of all this 6mm stuff when we have had the 243 for years and for me has been dead nutz great. For varmints and deer. Just load my own and awesome. And the Howa 1500 speaks for itself
Awesome. Yup I'm a 243 fan
Whetherby Vanguard/ Howa same platform. I have the mini 1500 in 6.5 Grendel excellent little rifle.
The .243 is a zippy one !
Just got a Howa Mini Carbon 6.5 Grendel barreled action from Brownells, and a Southern Cross chassis from Midwest Gunworks. Excited to shoot the ammo I have then load up some fast slingers.
Are the Howa 1500s very similar to the Weatherby Vanguards?. I have two Vanguard weathetguard bronze rifles, one in .223 and one in 6.5 creedmore. They are both great looking and fantastic shooters. Keep up the great videos!.
If your interested Ron Spomer Outdoors Podcast sit down with Adam Weatherby less than 2 weeks ago. Really good podcast.
The Vanguard's reciver/action and barrel are Howa then Weatherby does final assembly of the rifle at there plant in Wyoming,Howa also made the Smith and Wesson rifles they were even named model 1500 rifles,I have a old S & W 1500 Deluxe in .243 beautiful gun shoots as good today as it did when my father bought it in 1983
Looks like you have a bit of a fore end pressure problem there.... Still the cold barrel groups are great which is all you need for hunting.
Another great video... -🙂
Add a little epoxy on the front of the action! Those groups will tighten right up. I have accurized both the 1500 and the mini mouser.
I just love your videos thanks for sharing and your honesty
Appreciate you watching
Love my Howa 1500 in 300 Win Mag, great budget rifle.
Love the 300wm
Howa for sure
That'll Do It! 100 Grain CL'ks... Good Hunting Rifle and Easy To Find Ammo...... I have the Howa 1500 in 308 and 6.5. Great Rifles! Need to Get the 243 for the Proper Group of Calibers! But... We have a Ruger American in 243 for the Time Being. Boyds Stock.... Good Stuff! Appreciate The Video!
Awesome. Appreciate you watching
"I know it's a shotgun but..." Since you can/do shoot almost everything I would love to see you wring-out a Savage Renegauge someday. Love your videos. Don't ever change!
I have several videos on the Renegauge. I can think of atleast 4 videos
My oversight/my bad. Sorry - I should have known. 😂 Thanks!
Great round that .243
I am probably wrong but, when checking if the barrel is hot, check it closer to the action, like where the throat of the barrel is/where the cartridge will be sitting when it's fired.
Try 80 grain bullets and I think it will get tighter. Guessing it’s a one and ten twist barrel. Mine liked 80 grain best and did like yours with 100 grain
Yup. Stat tuned for another video. This one loves 80 gr
Try a group without the susher machine. It may be altering barrel harmonics.
Another great demo! You rock WTW!!!!
Appreciate you watching!
Love my 243 savage 110 predator it groups really well but it’s a boat anchor. Shoots way under 1” groups but also weighs 14 pounds set up to coyote hunt. 42” swagger bipods vortex viper optic sig titanium can tally precision mounts for scope.
Also will add that I do load my own ammo just for my rifle
14 Pounds sounds like a BAR .🐺
Arken is the best cheap scope love it
Great video - I believe it's the same gun as the weatherby?
You 243 looks like Mini Pearl with that tag hanging off of it ! LOL
🤣🤣🤣
I wish I could find the 243 Howa like that one they are non existant except in the blued version. The stainless black houge you cant find. I am hoping when the new howa super deluxe stainless version comes out maybe I could get one or I might just get the blued version. Awesome video though I have been waiting to see these results when you previewed the rifle a while back.
Nice shooting whotee. Those howa 1500 gotta be top 2 on trigger and build quality vs price. Average trigger pull on them lands in the 4 to 5 lb range factory
I love em
Hey Hewty Hew, Howa is now selling this same exact rifle in the Hogue stock with a full CARBON fiber barrel for only $699.00 here at my favorite gun store in KY
WOW
You need a barrel color that Magno speed makes one put it right in there.A little fan works great
Howa makes some damn fine guns.
Will work for hunting but would be looking at different ammo to see if tightens up some
Stay tuned
I have a 1500 Howa precision chassis rifle in 308 that is a beast. I’ve never seen a Howa that didn’t shoot.
I love em
Okay Minnie Pearl, I believe that Howa will do better once you find the ammo it prefers most. 😁 My Howa-made Weatherby Vanguard out shoots everything in my safe. Seriously, I always enjoy your videos that target (pun intended) the interests of budget-minded hunters and shooters.
🙏🙏🙏 appreciate you watching
Hey I just recently got a Vanguard (Weatherby) in .243 for whitetail. How does the lack of a free floating barrel affect it?
@@Draecon If you dig deep enough into the Weatherby website, you will find their explanation of why Weatherby/Howa use a pressure post design for Vanguard barrels. The design is nothing new and is used to dampen the vibrations that might otherwise reduce accuracy. Still, it’s not uncommon for those who are unfamiliar with the design and who believe free floated barrels always shoot better, to remove the pressure post, which voids the rifle’s accuracy guarantee. But what can you say about people who think they know more about a rifle barrel than those who designed and tested it.
I have that exact model chambered in .308!
Me to and 223
Awesome
It's ALWAYS a really fun video, that's why I'm here.
🙏🙏🙏
You should take it back out and feed it some of the norma whitetail, or the hornady whitetails.
Try 87g hornady it will put the 100g to shame
🇦🇺😎👍I have a Howa 243 varmint 24” blued with a Vortex 6-20x50 Viper. It has a standard Hogue black rubber stock which flexes too much when being shot off the bipod. . Off the sand bags the best I can do so far is 38/50mm @100 yards with Winchester factory ammunition. Personally I am disappointed considering the rifle is immaculate and all care was taken. Maybe different ammo or even reloads will be required to get better groups…Honestly I thought it would do much better. I have other Howas that shoot sub moa but so far not this one
Arken Optics offering a sweet 25% off deal, it's the perfect time to upgrade your setup. Can't beat the feeling of precision on the range!
Can't wait.
You set up the rifle for a Hunt how did it go? Just asking 🙏 ❤️
I LOVE my arken optics! Best scopes for the $$, bar none!
ABSOLUTELY
They make really good guns love my 6.5 Grendel
Absolutely
I wonder if it would like a different ammo better? And I may have to look into these Arken scopes.
Stay tuned. Testing more soon
Great video, will take a look at the Arken Scope, you really seem to like them. What brand rings and height? Looks to be a perfect match for the rifle, thanks.
I pretty much use medium rigs on everything. Had low rings be too low too many times
I really don’t like the cheap, plastic, non flush detachable magazines that everything seems to have anymore. I love the flush metal baseplate top loaders like Howas
I love em
Try the hornady 100 interlock
Hornady these days is overpriced/over rated. Used to be my go to brand until they did the forced jab mandate on their employees, even after the Supreme Court ruled it unconstitutional. I will NEVER buy Hornady products again. I can't understand how people who claim to be pro-2A still support these companies who were goose stepping to the Biden mandates.
I like that set up ol buddy
I love it
Love the vids xden new shooter xx
I am proud of ya you finally got a scope mounted down low on the barrel Now your cooking with bacon Grease !!!! What do you think of that scope?
I like it
Im really liking my Howa Mini action .223. Got it in part based on your recommendations
I love em
If u had to choose between a howa 1500 and a Remington 700 which would ya go with ?
Hey brother. I never seen a Howa 1500 that would shoot pretty darn good 👍🏻🇺🇸
Bolt guns are so much fun...
As a newbie. It's nice to see I'm not the only one to turn the wrong way.
Thanks for watching!
Glad to see someone else with my directional dyslexia. For some reason I think now am i moving the scope up or the bullet “up”
You can call that your Mini Pearl rifle with that tag hanging off of it.🤪
Good little rifle thanks for sharing 👍🇺🇸
Thanks for watching
I was curious the brand and model of the lazer bore sighter. Seems to always work for you, think I’d like to get myself one.

Hi there, is there any chance of you doing some reviews on any of the new Sako 90s especially in 222R or 223R or 22/250. My favorites are the Bavarian models but whatever you could get hold of would be nice. Cheers.
I have several videos on the sako 90 already. Even a deer hunt. In 300 win mag tho
Looking forward to the video
Always appreciate you watching
Buy yourself a small camping air pump with a internal rechargeable battery ,fit a tube on it then shove that tube down into the breech after the first set of shots and turn on the pump to pump cold air down the barrel to cool it cos those hunting barrels ain’t made for multiple shots as you know ! Used to cool mine down with a damp towel but the cold air is a lot easier!❤️
🇬🇧🏴
Can you put the links for the optics and other equipment that you use in the video info so that we can find the links easier. Your videos are always great, and I very much enjoy watching all of them. I wish that more of the Bing bang tubers would be as eager to help the common people like you do. So many of them are too interested in Flash or showing nothing but the most expensive guns and putting on a show. I understand people do utube videos to make money but some are more interested in putting g on a show instead of trying to educate us and give us worthwhile information. This is why your channel, at least in my opinion, is second to none. Thank you for all that you do, and keep up the great work.
Unfortunately YT no longer allows links to optics
I appreciate you watching
Try some fed fusion
Nice quick sight-in!🇺🇲✝️🇺🇲
Ephesians 6:10-18
I know it is a pain, you should really follow break in procedures, it actually does help accuracy and your gun barrel will last longer.
I disagree. Many of my expert competition friends disagree too.
When doing your initial sighting in, what's the distance between the dots on the paper plate. I've seen you use this method of sighting in but I don't recall how you detirmine the spacing.
Roughly 2 inches
Great video. I love the Howa machine products. What brand bore sight do you use? thanks

hey brotha adam , great great set-up n rifle there , awesome stuff indeed , do you own a 220 swift or a .22/.250 rifle ? , these are great rifles for taking game down guranteed out there , technology has come a long way since ive been to the range , you keep em coming brothaman . tom !
I have many videos on 22-250. Been looking for a 220
If you want the external mag. There's an adapter kit for 1500 how's that replace the drop bottom to a 10 round magazine.
Love it Adam xden
Question.. when you measure groups do you measure (outside hole to outside) or measure bullet diameter and then measure center of hole to center?
Either center to center of far side of one hole to closest side of other
Now you got me interested damn ya. Been looking to get a new bolt gun. Have you ever put hands on the 1500 in 6.5 creed with the 16" barrel. I want something with a medium to heavy barrel without dropping a grand.
I have not seen a 16 incher yet
@@WHOTEEWHO Check out "Grab a Gun". Based out of Texas. They have one for about 600. They are a middle man company that will ship to your FFL.
Seems like the same rifle as the Weatherby Vanguard you have in .243 or no?
Similar but different in many ways
Loved it❤
Howa makes a sweet action. Does Howa still make the Weatherby Vanguard?
Not 100% sure but I think
For a new hunter out west what would recommend? 300win ,6.5creed, or 270win? I’ve been shooting but only still comfortable at 200 yards. Trying to get more practice for this upcoming season.
I love 300wm for out west. Took 3 deer at 300 yds and beyond with 300wm this year
@@WHOTEEWHO thanks for the input
Actually saving up for a howa been practicing with a savage axis 223 rem But been wanting my own and in a different caliber. Appreciate what you do 👍🏽
Waiting for the 240 wby mag, why? Just because!😂 Great entertainment, thanks!!
Thanks for watching!
