I wanted to try assembling a Howa 1500 Mini action 6mm ARC just for fun. I recently bought the 20" barreled action (threaded) from Brownells and the Carbon Fiber Stocky's stock. I assembled it and shot 10 rounds. I just don't really need it for anything as I also bought a barrel for my AR that meets my needs with this fun little cartridge. It weighs 5 lbs 3.8 oz.

It is in perfect condition other than a few marks that came on the stock from Stockys. Comes with 1 mag and Talley lightweight alloy scope mounts in 1" low. The Leupold scope is not included.
$775 shipped to your FFL CONUS. SOLD. Call or text Ted with questions. 4149153739

It's a fun round. No recoil. Got the scope dialed with Hornady Black then switch to Hornady ELD-M. It liked the Eld-M better. I didn't try real hard for killer groups. Just shot off a bipod with no rear rest. I think the last group was around 1" but being it is a 6mm I think it will do better.
 
Those Howa Mini actions possess tremendous accuracy potential. I've owned several now and all of them shot well under MOA. One was a 7.62x39 that routinely cloverleafed with handloads and even shot steel case surplus under an inch. Another was a 6.5 Grendel that was the most accurate rifle I've ever owned, even ahead of the 5 Tikkas I've owned. Several times I shot 3/4-1" groups at 200 yards and a few times at 300 yards. Cloverleafs at 100 were routine with that rifle. I'm sure this little 6 ARC is more than accurate enough if my previous experience with Howa Minis is any measure.
