The Howa Mini Action in .223 Rem/5.56 NATO (brand part no. HMA70222) is a bolt-action rifle built on Howa’s compact mini-action receiver, sized to fit shorter cartridges without the extra length of a standard long action. Howa finishes the rifle in black with a 20-inch threaded barrel and feeds it from a 10-round detachable magazine, giving shooters more capacity than a typical bolt gun. Among varmint and hunting rifles in the bolt action rifles category, the Mini Action favors shooters who want a compact, high-capacity .223 bolt gun.
