The Howa Fence Line 25Creed in 22-inch barrel with muzzle brake and gray synthetic stock brings Japanese-engineered precision to a lightweight, affordable hunting package. Built on the Howa 1500 bolt-action platform—a design trusted by American hunters since 1979—this rifle delivers the accuracy and reliability you need without the premium price tag. In 6.5 Creedmoor, it's a smart choice for medium-range hunting, target shooting, and long-range practice where the cartridge's ballistics shine.
The foundation is solid: a cold hammer-forged barrel rated for sub-MOA accuracy (1-inch or better at 100 yards with quality factory ammunition), a machined receiver, and dual locking lugs that keep everything tight through thousands of rounds. The two-stage HACT trigger breaks clean and predictable—no guesswork when you're lining up a shot. A 90-degree bolt throw means fast, smooth cycling, and the M16-style extractor is proven reliable across decades of hard use. The 4-round detachable magazine keeps the action trim and quick to reload.
Practical features make field work easier: the three-position safety lets you unload on safe or lock the bolt for secure transport, and the threaded muzzle (fitted with a brake) is ready for sound suppressors if that's your setup. The gray synthetic stock is coated for weather resistance and tuned light to keep the rifle mobile in thick cover or across open country. Every Howa Fence Line rifle backs up its claims with a 100% lifetime warranty on manufacturing defects—the maker stands behind its work.
This is a no-nonsense rifle: accurate, reliable, built to last, and priced for shooters who value performance over brand prestige. Whether you're zeroing for fall season, running drills at the range, or testing loads for a new cartridge, the Fence Line 25Creed gets the job done.
