Howa M1500 TSP X Rifle 6.5 PRC 10rd Magazine 24″ Threaded Barrel Folding Precision Chassis Black

The Howa M1500 TSP X Rifle 6.5 PRC 10rd Magazine 24″ Threaded Barrel Folding Precision Chassis Black is a factory-built, long-range production rifle that delivers a sub-MOA guarantee out of the box. Chambered in 6.5 PRC with a 24″ heavy-contour, 1:8″ twist barrel and a fully adjustable aluminum folding chassis, this rig accepts AICS pattern magazines and comes with a 10-rounder. It’s a turnkey solution for steel, PRS, or hunting at extended distances.

Key Features

• Folding Precision Chassis — Reduces overall length by roughly 10″ for transport and storage. The cheek riser and length of pull are fully adjustable, so you can dial in a consistent cheek weld without needing a gunsmith.
• 24″ Threaded Heavy Barrel (1:8″ Twist) — The 1:8 twist rate stabilizes 140-156 grain 6.5 PRC bullets to 1,000+ yards. The 5/8×24 threaded muzzle accepts your preferred brake or suppressor without adapter hassle.
• AICS Magazine Compatibility — Uses standard AICS pattern magazines (10-round included). This gives you access to affordable, reliable feeding from brands like Accurate-Mag or MDT.
• Two-Stage HACT Trigger — Howa’s HACT trigger breaks clean at roughly 2-3 pounds after a short take-up. You can adjust pull weight and overtravel without removing the action from the chassis.
• Sub-MOA Guarantee — Howa test-fires every M1500 TSP X and guarantees three-shot groups under 1 MOA at 100 yards with match ammunition. According to Howa specs, this is a factory-backed accuracy standard, not a marketing claim.

Who It’s For

This rifle is built for the shooter who wants a production-level PRS or long-range hunting platform without the wait time or cost of a full custom build. The 6.5 PRC cartridge delivers 300-400 fps more velocity than 6.5 Creedmoor with 140-grain bullets, pushing energy past 1,700 ft-lbs at 500 yards. The 13.5-pound weight soaks up recoil and keeps the crosshair steady on target. If you’re shooting steel at 1,000+ yards or hunting elk at extended ranges, this rig handles both roles without compromise.

Pros / Cons

• Pros: Factory sub-MOA guarantee, folding chassis for compact transport, AICS magazine compatibility, threaded barrel, adjustable trigger, 6.5 PRC offers flatter trajectory than 6.5 Creedmoor.
• Cons: At 13.5 pounds unloaded, it’s heavy for backcountry hunting. The heavy barrel profile adds weight up front, which can be a liability on long pack-outs.
