Sprung within the bolt body, the plunger-type ejector forcefully ejects spent cases from the action. Primary extraction is accomplished by way of an M16 rifle-type extractor claw.
Safety and trigger The Howa uses a side safety system that is an integral part of the trigger unit. Operation is performed by way of a simple sliding knurled lever, accessed from the right-hand side of the action tang. In the forward position the rifle is ready to fire, while a swift and reasonably quiet roller action to the rear makes it safe, locking the trigger and sear, but allowing you to operate the bolt and safely to unload the rifle should you wish.

The trigger itself is a lovely affair and a breath of fresh air compared with some I have tested. Set at no more than 2lb, it is light, responsive and totally predictable, and it does aid in shrinking those groups down-range. I would choose to leave the factory settings well alone, but you can adjust if you feel competent to do so; getting access to the adjusting screws necessitates removal of the stock first.
Good stock As far as varmint stocks go, you would be hard pushed to find a better designed and finished stock for this class of rifle. There is no chequering for extra grip at the pistol grip and fore-end but the stock design takes care of any concerns in this department. The fore-end has a wide shallow form, commonly referred to as beaver tail this means that the base fills the hand or rest to support the rifle and counteracts any sideways slippage, while the raised ridge section allows a good grip for the fingers of the supporting hand to wrap around.
To enhance the design further there are three slotted ventilation holes to each side that transcend the entire girth of the fore-end. This has a dual role in allowing the barrel quickly to cool after a rapid session of shots and it does look rather good, too. Being a Varmint model, this Howa had a great thumbhole configuration to the butt section of the stock, which was really well thought out.

Rifles Condition: New Price: Trade Make: Howa Calibre: Bolt Action Certificate: I have an ambidextrous thumbhole stock on my howa Got the stock from highland outdoors as the plastic stock was rubbish. Gun is spot on now though. I looked at one belonging to a friend a couple of weeks ago, bit heavy for me it was a Varmint model but it was nicely finished and shot like a house on fire. At yards it matched custom single shot single shot rifles, very impressed.
