The Howa Mini Action 1500 in .22 ARC (brand part no. HMA22ARCG) pairs a 22-inch blued, threaded barrel with a green fixed synthetic stock, built on a chamber and bolt roughly 12 percent shorter than a regular short action for faster reloads. Howa uses a drawn steel barrel and a three-position safety, and the right-hand action feeds from a magazine carrying 5+1 rounds. Sling swivel studs come installed for an aftermarket sling. Among compact precision rifles in the bolt action rifles category, the Mini Action 1500 favors .22 ARC shooters who want a shorter action with a faster bolt throw.
