The Howa Fence Line 7mm PRC 24" bolt-action rifle delivers serious long-range capability without the premium price tag. Built on the legendary Howa 1500 action—a Japanese-engineered platform with over four decades of proven field performance—this rifle combines dependable accuracy with the raw power needed for extended-range hunting and precision shooting. The 7mm PRC cartridge strikes a balance between velocity and recoil, making it an increasingly popular choice for hunters pursuing game at distance across open country and rough terrain.
What sets the Fence Line apart is the thoughtful engineering underneath. The Howa action features a cold hammer-forged barrel, dual locking lugs, and a spring-loaded M16-style extractor that cycles reliably cycle after cycle. The HACT two-stage trigger breaks clean and predictable, while the 90-degree bolt throw keeps your shooting rhythm smooth. A muzzle brake is factory-installed on this model, taming the 7mm PRC's recoil and helping you stay on target—plus the threaded barrel opens the door to suppressors down the road if you choose to go that route. The Scorched Earth synthetic stock is durable and weather-resistant, ready for hunting or range days in all conditions.
Howa backs every rifle with a 100% lifetime warranty on manufacturing defects, so you're investing in a rifle built to last. The three-position safety allows you to unload on safe or lock down the bolt for secure transport, and tool-less firing pin removal makes field maintenance straightforward. With a detachable box magazine, fast reloads are simple. This is a purpose-built hunting and target rifle for shooters who want proven Japanese precision at a realistic investment.
