Very accurate .308, with a 24" barrel rifle for sale. Like the reviews in the links below state, Howa 1500 is a very accurate rifle which shoots sub-MOA, 5 shot groups on 100 yards with cheap and match ammo. MDT Oryx chassis provides enhanced ergonomics and it has full lenght Swiss Arca rail so you can easily mount accessories, bipods, tripods...

The package consists of:

1. Howa 1500 24" .308 barreled action https://www.brownells.com/gun-parts/rifl.../?sku=100023948
2. MDT Oryx chassis - https://www.brownells.com/gun-parts/rifl.../?sku=430109561
3. Primary Arms SLx 5-25x56 FFP Rifle Scope - https://www.primaryarms.com/primary-arms...bpr-mil-reticle
4. MDT Oryx Arca rail - https://mdttac.com/oryx-chassis-arca-rail-full-forend-length/
5. SilencerCO ASR AC591 muzzle brake - https://silencerco.com/shop/asr-muzzle-brake/

The chassis has full length butt stock installed, in case you need shorter length of pull, you can easily remove one or more spacers to fit you. MDT Oryx chassis converts bottom metal magazine on Howa 1500 to AICS magazine slot. The stock also has aftermarket thumbwheels to easily adjust cheek piece to a desired height and an aftermarket bag rider. Muzzle brake is timed using Precision Armament accu-washer for precise fit and held in place by Rocksett. The scope is mounted using Vortex rings.

It comes with one 10 round AICS Magpul magazine - https://magpul.com/pmag-10-762-ac-aics.html?mp_global_color=118

In my testing, the following ammo has produced sub-MOA 5 shot groups on 100 yards (Saltech SwissM is about $14.5/box of 20):

Make Grain Bullet

Federal Gold Sierra Match King 175 SMK
Norma Target Gold Match (GTX) 168 HPBT
Norma Target Gold Match (GTX) 175 HPBT
Federal Gold centerstrike 178 OTM
IMI 175 SMK
Saltech SwissM 147 FMJ
Hornady ELD-M 168 BTHP
Nosler 168 HPBT

This rifle shoots sub-MOA groups with cheap and match ammo. I've shot about 200 rounds through it and the barrel can easily last 5000 rounds. The action is smooth and it has no feeding, extraction or any other issues. There are few small scuffs from use, only cosmetic in nature. The rifle shoots great and is ready for you to shoot it suppressed or unsuppressed.

Howa 1500 barreled action has 5 star reviews, the chassis has 4.8 stars and the scope has 5 star reviews, all the parts are very good and of high quality. The scope is very clear and has MIL style christmas tree reticle that is not too busy and is easy to use. Total cost for all parts is over $1600 (before tax and shipping) and you can have it for just $1200. I can include Apache 9800 wheeled case for additional $100.

Transfer at a FFL in or around NoVA, Outdoor Arms in Burke is preferred. You pay the transfer fee. You can PM me on here or text me 571-310-2979.
