MDT HNT26 Chassis System Black Carbon Fiber Howa 1500 SA/Vanguard

The MDT HNT26 Chassis System transforms precision rifle performance by replacing traditional hunting stocks with a tactical platform engineered for accuracy. This carbon fiber chassis accepts Howa 1500 short action and Weatherby Vanguard receivers while providing AICS magazine compatibility for enhanced feeding reliability.

What Makes This Different

The HNT26 bridges the gap between hunting rifles and precision tactical systems through its carbon fiber construction that reduces weight by 30% compared to aluminum alternatives. The chassis features an integrated aluminum bedding block that eliminates flex and maintains consistent barrel harmonics shot after shot. This design approach delivers sub-MOA accuracy potential while maintaining the lightweight characteristics hunters demand.

Key Features

• Carbon fiber construction reduces overall rifle weight while maintaining structural rigidity
• AICS magazine compatibility accepts standard 5, 10, and 20-round polymer magazines
• Integrated aluminum bedding block ensures consistent receiver contact and eliminates stress points
• M-LOK forend sections provide mounting options for bipods, lights, and accessories
• Adjustable length of pull accommodates shooters from 12.5" to 14.5"
• Standard AR-15 pistol grip interface allows customization for hand size and shooting preference
• Black finish resists wear and provides low-visibility profile for field use

Field testing demonstrates the HNT26's versatility across hunting and precision shooting applications. The rigid platform maintains zero through temperature changes and field handling that would shift point of impact in traditional stocks. Competition shooters benefit from the stable shooting platform and quick magazine changes, while hunters appreciate the weight savings during extended carries and the improved accuracy for longer shots.
