I've seen this brand for sale on various online sites and occasionally at the local stores. For anyone who owns one, how is Howa's overall quality/accuracy?

I don't know how they are these days but in years past, Howa bolt action rifles were of superb quality, very underrated.

BTW, it's your one year anniversary of the same question: https://sigforum.com/eve/forum...0039505?r=1630039505

Well then, that's a sign. I should buy that Howa.

I only have an Arisaka, seemingly an older Howa rifle. They have a long history, reviews are rather good.

I believe the Weatherby Vanguard is a rebranded Howa. They are known for their accuracy.

I may be getting one soon.
Check back in another year

Don't want to be hasty

I bought a Howa in .338 Win Mag when I lived in Alaska '09-'14. Quality was very good, it's accurate, and well priced.

I bought a Weatherby Vanguard (yes, same rifle) in .270 Win when I first moved back to Texas in '16. Quality is very good, it's accurate, and well priced.

I bought a 26" Howa Chassis Rifle in 6.5 Creedmoor in '17. Quality is good, and is well priced for a long barreled chassis rifle. As far as accuracy, I shot steel at 900 yards with it.

I haven't bought one since '17, but haven't heard anything negative during that time either.

I’ve seen dynamite prices at Brownell’s for Howa action/barrel combos.
