The MDT HNT26 Chassis System transforms the Howa 1500 Short Action and Weatherby Vanguard into a precision rifle platform with enhanced ergonomics and modularity. This cobalt green chassis accepts standard AICS magazines and provides a solid foundation for long-range accuracy.
What Makes This Different
The HNT26 chassis eliminates the limitations of factory stocks through a full aluminum construction that maintains consistent barrel harmonics shot after shot. Unlike traditional synthetic stocks, this system provides multiple adjustment points and accessory mounting options. The rigid platform reduces flex under load while the AICS magazine compatibility opens up feeding options beyond factory magazines.
Key Features
- Full aluminum construction for maximum rigidity and consistency
- Compatible with Howa 1500 Short Action and Weatherby Vanguard receivers
- AICS magazine compatibility for reliable feeding and quick reloads
- Adjustable length of pull and cheek rest for custom fit
- M-LOK slots for bipod and accessory mounting
- Picatinny rail sections for optics and night vision mounting
- Cobalt green anodized finish for corrosion resistance
Field performance centers on the chassis's ability to maintain zero through temperature changes and heavy use. The aluminum construction dissipates heat more effectively than polymer alternatives while providing a stable shooting platform for competition and hunting applications. Weather sealing protects internal components from moisture and debris during extended field use.
