The Howa M1500 Carbon Stalker rifle in .243 Winchester with gray webbing (brand part no. HCBNVTG243GW) pairs Howa’s proven M1500 action with a lightweight carbon-fiber-wrapped stock for hunters who want to shed ounces without sacrificing accuracy. Howa fits the barrel into a custom Stocky’s carbon-fiber stock finished with a gray webbing pattern, and the bolt action feeds from a 5+1 capacity magazine. A 3-position safety gives the shooter positive control over the action, and the 1:10-inch twist rate stabilizes common .243 Winchester hunting bullets. Among lightweight builds in the bolt action rifles category, this M1500 Carbon Stalker configuration favors hunters covering long distances on foot.
