The Howa ATIM10R22250 detachable magazine transforms the traditional Howa 1500 bolt-action rifle into a rapid-reload platform. This 10-round magazine eliminates the need for single-round loading through the action, reducing reload time from 30+ seconds to under 3 seconds. Built specifically for 22-250 Remington chambered Howa 1500 rifles, this magazine maintains the rifle's inherent accuracy while adding tactical versatility.
What Makes This Different
Unlike aftermarket magazines that may require gunsmithing, this factory Howa magazine integrates seamlessly with the rifle's existing trigger guard and bottom metal. The polymer construction reduces weight by 40% compared to steel alternatives while maintaining dimensional stability across temperature extremes. Factory engineering ensures consistent feeding geometry that matches the rifle's chamber specifications exactly.
