Saw this on Rapid Fire yesterday
SPIKE CAMP HOWA 1500 MINI STD #2 BC NUTMEG SATIN
One of those barreled actions and this stock would make up into a relatively inexpensive way for someone to teach themself how to put together a really nice little bolt action rifle for someone who is OK with thumbhole stocks. Last edited by JDHasty; 10-09-2022 at 05:20 PM. |

Are they the go to small caliber choices now that CZ has goofed up their line by not continuing to sell proven winners?

Howa has been a fine firearm for a lot of years, it just does not get the attention that other do, as often. They make a fine base action to use and now some have pre-fit barrels for them, that make them even more workable to play with. |

To the best of my knowledge there is no current options that will allow this action to be used as the basis for a rimmed cartridge repeater. To answer your question: For me they are. |

Howa mini
I ordered one. Now deciding what to build it into. Either a .17 mach iv, 17 Fireball or a 17-222. A buddy gave me 800 25 gr remington plhp to shoot. I had steered away from 17 due to a lack of good bullets for coyotes.
I just pulled a Tikka T3x out of the lathe I built in 20 Practical.. I have some time to decide. |

And being in my commie state of California I legally can only use the lead free bullets, but the 15.5 NTX bullet does a super job on my critters, even coyote sized ones. Lung/heart or head shots, they don't move. |

Like you B23, I enjoy the 222 Rem case. working up loads and all now on a 20 VTT and it is shooting sweet.
I went a step further with a Howa Mini and have it in 22 PPC, little larger case than the 222 R, but also a sweet shooter. Kind of thinking about a 20 PPC, later this winter, as another project. Also know the OP will enjoy his project, with which ever manner he choices. |

I need another project like a hole in the head. I really like the Howa Mini, have three now and another wouldn’t bother me.
I rebarreled one and had to put a relief cut to get it loose from the action. Have a 20BR that I need to put some attention towards. Along with a 224 Clark that has turned into yet another project. |
