For operators and serious precision shooters, a bolt-action rifle that consistently prints inside an inch at 100 yards is the foundation of effective tactical work. Whether you’re building a long-range kit or seeking a reliable platform for training, material quality, bedding, and trigger performance separate match-capable rifles from the rest.

Howa HS Precision is built one at a time right here in the United States from the highest quality raw material. The aluminum bedding block is CNC machined to the specific dimensions of the HOWA 1500 barreled action and then placed into a mold where both sides are hand laminated with kevlar, fiberglass and carbon fiber. The result is a stock that’s hand finished to a high standard and ready for demanding use. Shop this product

Precision-Oriented Construction

The HS Precision pairs a steel receiver and a 22″ barrel with that CNC-machined aluminum bedding block to lock the barreled action into a dimensionally stable chassis. The two-stage trigger gives predictable, controllable break characteristics that are essential for repeatable sub-MOA performance. The hand-laminated composite stock (kevlar, fiberglass, carbon fiber) reduces flex under recoil and stabilizes the action in a wide range of temperatures and humidity.

Tactical Performance and Use Cases

For tactical shooters who need dependable accuracy in training, patrol, or competition, the Howa HS Precision’s Sub-MOA claim makes it a strong value proposition. The 22″ barrel balances muzzle velocity and maneuverability for use from supported positions, prone, or vehicle deployment. The steel receiver accepts common scope mounts and aftermarket bedding options while the machine work ensures consistent alignment and harmonics.
