    Howa and Tikka are quite possibly the best quality, reasonably priced, off the shelf rifles available. Your accuracy tests prove it. Thanks for the video.

    Here in Oz custom built rifles cost a lot of money so I decided to use a Howa 1500 action to build my 223 Ackley on. Admittedly I put a $600 barrel on the action (Krieger), but the action has not been touched with the standard HACT howa trigger. The results have been outstanding, .25 moa all day. The gun shoots better than I can. Keep the vids coming, cheers mate.

    The 300 Win. Mag. is versatile if going for larger North American game. Ammo is pretty easy to find with great bullet weight and type selection. I just don't like the thump in a light hunting rifle but I'm busted up.
    One thing I love about WTW is the common man approach.

    My son just told me he wanted better optics on his new Howa 1500. After many other firearms projects done. I’m starting on this Howa. This is my first Howa on my bench. So I’m researching Howa rifles. Most firearms I take them down and go through the whole firearm to make mods and make improvements where needed. Doing my research I’m finding that Howa already did that. All I have to do is mount optics and choose a muzzle break. Nice. Should be a quick project.

    Always wanted to try a Howa 1500 , they build a very high quality rifle. They also used to make the Smith &Wesson rifle and the Weatherby vanguard. Most low priced rifles use cheaper manufacturing materials and techniques, soldered bolt handles, add on recoil lugs ,plastic trigger guard and magazine? Howa has one piece forged bolt and handle,forged receiver and recoil lug,bottom metal trigger guard floor plate mag box all metal hammer forged barrel and the bolt is too less strippable!

    My Weatherby Vanguard in .300 WM has a Howa 1500 action. Love the rifle. However, I had to try like 6-7 different rounds to find something it loved. Found the 200gr Federal Initial Ascent and the 150gr Hornady SST rounds grouped like his Howa here. Very affordable awesome rifles. Confident if I threw an MDT stock on it it would get even more accurate. No need though for my purposes.

    I sight all my hog and coyote rigs 1 inch high at 100 so I know my point and shoot range. Figuring your scope is 2.5 inches above bore, If you leave the 300 Win Mag 1 inch high at 100, you are .02 low at 50, 1 inch high at 100, 1.1 inches high at 150, 0 at 200 and not an inch low again until 225 yards. Point and shoot out to 225 without any guess work. Just my two cents worth. Nice groups, nice shooting rifle.

      Yeahhhh…. Thinking it’s more like Bergarbage. But, I’m hopeful I can work up some handloads it likes and all will be good in the world. It put regular 180gr corelokt in a 3” group at 100, and I’ve tried 5 other different factory loadings. Only one that shot sub-moa is the SIG 190gr hpbt match that Bergara uses for their MOA guarantee. Reached out to their customer service to hopefully get some ideas…. They don’t guarantee a HUNTING rifle to shoot sub MOA with any HUNTING ammunition. Just match ammo.
      Clearly Howa can make one sub MOA capable with hunting ammunition.

    Love my Howa’s (actually one is branded Weatherby Vanguard). I get .3 moa with the target setup and .75 with no effort, using factory 140 grain bullets for hunting. I do reload for both and get much better accuracy but for rifles under 600 bucks and an affordable budget optic on each they perform as well as rifles I have worth two to three times more expensive.

    I would be extremely excited if I could shoot anything that well. You are a great "bullet slinger"!

    our Howa is hitting 30” rock at 670 yards multiple times. Then third round hit at over 900 yards on larger rock.

    I have that exact rifle with zeiss glass. It is the cheapest tack driver I've ever owned.
