The Howa M1500 Mini 6mm ARC bolt-action rifle delivers precision and speed in a compact, lightweight package built for hunters and precision shooters who demand accurate follow-up shots without the bulk of a standard action. The M1500 Mini action is 12% shorter than a short-action design, trimming weight and reducing overall length—a real advantage in tight shooting positions, from a stand or when working through thick cover. Chambered in 6mm ARC, this modern intermediate cartridge balances velocity, accuracy, and recoil management for hunting medium game and tactical applications where efficiency matters.
Built on Howa's reputation for dependable, no-frills rifles, the M1500 Mini pairs a forged, lightened one-piece bolt with dual locking lugs for reliable lock-up and fast cycling. The 20" heavy threaded barrel gives you velocity and a platform ready for a suppressor or muzzle brake, while the black finish handles field work without fuss. Sling swivel studs come standard, so you can get mounted and hunting quickly. This isn't a fancy rifle—it's a practical tool that shoots straight and keeps moving.
The 6mm ARC cartridge has earned respect for flat, efficient ballistics and clean, accurate performance at range. If you're building a lightweight, fast-handling rifle for hunting or you want a compact precision platform that doesn't sacrifice capability, the Howa M1500 Mini delivers both without pretense or premium pricing.
