A good decent rifle especially for the money. I don't own one but have shot a couple. My favorite being a .308 which shot very well. Here's their link....

Honestly, one of my favorite rifles. Just under the Savage 10FP in .308. The Howa M1500 Varminter has almost everything I want in a rifle but for much less than the Remington 700 PSS that I almost got. Dont know about all of them but mine was just as accurate out of the box as any other rifle I have shot/owned. One of my local Walmarts carries them for 389.00 (Howa M1500 Bl/SS .308 win 24" heavy barrel, 5+1 in chamber).
Like TScott said, for the money.....I'll buy another one or two..lol

Hunting is the one sport where, if you are playing right, the other team doesn't even know you're in the game.

Pick up a copy of Complete Rifleman. There is a very informative article in there titled Bargain Bolt Actions. I havn't shot one but from looking at and handling them in the stores they look and feel very well made and have a nice fit to them also.

I use a Howa-1500 Legacy modle it has a laminated wood thumbhole stock and stainless barrel mine is in cal. 22-250. I can only say good things about this rifle and highly recommend it to anyone shopping for similar. This is my winter yote hunting rifle it replaces a Encore in the same caliber that had a bullbarrel and I would not want it back this Howa rifle can handle weather extremes much better than my T/C encore. Howa's trigger and action for this rifle is one of the best I have seen in a factory rifle in a long time its a shame USA manufacturer's that do produce the same quality in their rifle expect the consumer to cough up alot more $$$.
