    Howa 1500 mini

    I read a thread on here that you were selling these and was trying to find details to no avail so I have some questions on the 7.62x39

    Mag capacity?
    Barrel contour and length options?
    Weight?
    Bore diameter of .311 or .308?
    Stock color options?
    Availability?
    Price?

    Thanks

    Brian

    Says designed to shoot .311 bullets. The Lipsey link in the other thread has info too. AFAIK, wood stock only. Availability September or so in the other thread.

    Sorry - you were asking about the Howa.

    Link to specs on legacy sports page is broken, but there's some info there and some on the review.

    Thanks for the info, answers some of the questions, hopefully Prophet can chime in with the rest, I sent a PM a while before making this thread, maybe they are closed for the holidays...

    any updates?

    From my own research I would be looking at the #1 contour or what they call the light barrel, looks like only a 5rnd magazine is offered, would prefer the green stock.

    Still looking for price, availability, weight and bore size on the light contour barrel.

    Also cost of additional magazines

    Thanks

    We are getting in MED barrels in the grendal in a few weeks. Lights and heavies will be longer. Start at 879.00 .311 bore on 7.62s. No extra mags yet to know price...
    The 7.62x39 will have all three barrels here soon. Black and green.

    I have the #1 contour and it is a fine rifle. I really want the Heavy Barrel variant for more range plinking. Given how I would transfer that one to the MDT stock, I hope you'll consider sourcing barreled actions.

    And the pic rail from Warne.

    Barrelled actions from Howa are essentially the same price as the rifle

    Sorry to hear that! So the lowest price is a non-scope package. Thanks for the reply!
