The Howa Carbon Stalker in 223 Rem combines Japanese precision engineering with modern materials for serious hunters and shooters. This bolt-action sporting rifle features a 22″ threaded barrel with 1/2″-28 threading, topped with a 1:8″ rate of twist for stable flight and accuracy.
Built on Howa’s reliable bolt-action platform, the Carbon Stalker weighs just 6.4 pounds and measures 40.5″ overall in length, making it nimble in the field without sacrificing sight radius. The rifle comes with a hinged floorplate and 5-round capacity magazine for convenient field reloading. Blued metal surfaces pair with a lightweight carbon fiber stock in Kryptek Altitude camouflage, while dual swivel studs and a recoil pad ensure comfortable carry and shooting positions.
The rifle ships without iron sights, leaving your receiver clear for modern optics mounting. A 1:8″ twist rate makes this 223 Rem well-suited for heavier bullet weights, while the threaded muzzle accepts suppressors and other muzzle devices for enhanced versatility afield.
