The Howa Super Lite rifle in 6.5 Creedmoor with a 20-inch threaded barrel and Kryptek Altitude camo finish (brand part no. HCSL65CRKAC) fills the gap between Howa’s popular Mini Action and standard Short Action platforms for a stick-and-move mountain rifle that doesn’t break the bank. Howa builds the blued barrel threaded 1/2×28 and suppressor ready, and the rifle weighs just 4 pounds 7 ounces thanks to a Stocky’s stock and machined receiver. A one-piece Picatinny rail simplifies optic mounting, and a flush-fitting detachable magazine keeps the profile snag-free in a tree stand or pack. A LimbSaver recoil pad softens felt recoil, and tool-less firing pin removal simplifies maintenance in the field. Among ultralight bolt action rifles, this Super Lite configuration favors mountain hunters who count every ounce.
