HOWA 1500 HHSSL708ODG | 7mm-08 Rem | 20″ Threaded

The Howa M1500 Superlite Gen2 in 7mm-08 Remington is a lightweight, full-size bolt-action rifle built around Howa’s reduced short action for a compact handling package. This configuration pairs a 20″ threaded barrel with an HS Precision synthetic stock finished in OD green with black webbing, intended for mobility and practical field use. The receiver is drilled and tapped and the rifle ships with a flush detachable magazine and a two-stage match trigger. A versatile scope such as the Vortex Viper PST Gen II 2.5-10×44 would be a good optical match and stays well under typical premium optic budgets while providing the magnification useful for hunting and precision work.
