    Ftx325 I bought the release guard too, solves the problem. I love my Howa Mini but reckon they let Homer Simpson design the mag catch!

    If you do go with a 223, I've got some dies here doing nothing.

    we have a mini in 7.62x39 and have no complaints other than the mag release protruding and catching on clothing etc and releasing the mag unexpectedly . Sorted that using a VTP made plastic shroud...

    Just to counter the above… I have both 1500 short action and mini action. The only mod I felt was necessary was to open the forend tip below the barrel (opened up to ensure any flex doesn’t touch the...

    I have had both and I preferred the standard with the hogue stock. Some people don't like the hogue stocks but I am a fan. Also I found that two mini actions I had in stainless would rust when I...

    Gidday Guys - I've been a "mini action nut" for most of my 50+ years hunting/shooting life. and you know what, I don't possess a single one these days, nor do I miss them. The above couple of...

    Another benefit to the Short Action is that with a small amount of DIY you can lengthen the internal magazine box. Out of the box the rifle has a magazine block which is closer to SAAMI max length -...

    Hi Here are my two curly coated retrievers with their first deer, a 2 yr Ruahine stag. They both indicated and the shot good and they are steadily learning their craft. Cheers Ruger177220

    If the weight of the hogue stock puts you off, you can also try dropping a lightweight profile short action/barrel into an Alpine stock. It's lightweight but good quality and has a decent recoil pad....

    I've owned both and prefer the Short Action 1500. The detachable magazine is the biggest con of the Mini. To make it comfortable to carry, you really need to get a Jefferson Outdoor hinged floor...

    stagstalker is the rifle for yourself, or for a wee one? If it is for yourself, I would recommend the Howa Mini, as it has a few more stock options than it used to and most at reasonable prices. -...
