Gene Lumsden, CEO of Legacy Sports International, Inc. announces the arrival of Howa Mini Action rifles chambered in .223 Remington. Inventory is available for immediate shipment in 20 inch lightweight, 22 inch standard and 20 inch heavy barrel versions. Other chamberings, including the .204 Ruger will be available soon. Special synthetic stocks have been designed to fit this new configuration and come in black, od green and Kryptek Highlander camo colors.
With the Mini Action, the chamber and bolt are 12% shorter than regular short actions with shorter bolt throw for faster reloads. Weight is also reduced with a shorter bolt. Each Mini Action rifle features a drawn barrel, three position safety and HACT two-stage trigger. The Howa Mini Action Rifle comes with a factory equipped ten round, synthetic detachable magazine. Scoped models come with a Nikko Stirling Panamax 3-9×40 scope that features an extra-wide angle field of view (20% more than comparable optics), red and green illuminated Half Mil Dot reticle and durability suited to heavy recoil rifle calibers.
