ORIGINAL: oldelkhunter

The Howa 1500 and the Vanguard are identical rifles
The bolts will interchange . But there are other differences.

[ul][*] 410 alloy SS vs 416 on the Howa[*] 24" barrels on std calibers Vangurard vs 22 on Howa[*]Enclosed Bolt Shroud on the Vanguard [*]3 position on the HOwa vs 2 pos safety on the Vanguard[*]Gas handling system on Vanguard a tad different 3 gas holes drilled to dump into magazine box vs either 1 or 2 on the HOwa[/ul]
I stand corrected
