This stock is for the Howa Mini action with the heavy barrel. It is in the Viper Western. The barrel channel inlet is slightly off center which is why it is being discounted.
Stocky’s renowned lineup of vertical grip Carbon Fiber stocks are lighter and stronger than ever. THIS IS THE Howa 1500 MINI VERSION!
As you may have read by now they are the most accurate HOWA ACCUBLOCK CF® stocks on the market today, frequently punching groups well under MOA in many magazine reviews. The MINI version is a full-size stock with the forend tapered more narrowly to correctly fit short-action rifles without excessive weight.
For the beautiful exterior shell we hand lay layers of premium carbon fiber cloth one-at-a-time in our climate-controlled cleanroom, using our own molds. All seams are overlapping for added strength. We then thermodynamically activate the resins using our own proprietary, in-house designed and built computer-controlled convection ovens, controlling the heat curves to the temperatures required to achieve ideal curing / time curves for each individual model. The resulting CF shells are the lightest and strongest we have ever seen.
Once the shell is completely cured it must be filled and inlet for your rifle. While some manufacturers might be tempted to use a relatively homogeneous fill for the forend as well as the receiver area, varying the density using fillers, we had another important requirement. Rather than adding weight and reducing strength by machining a big rectangular hole (like competitors) for adding in our aluminum Accublock® after-the-fact, we wanted to develop our own lightweight material that functionally duplicated T6061 aluminum metal from a compression and strength standpoint but could be molded right in as part of the manufacturing process. That was a tall order but our engineers accomplished it by developing a new Accublock® composite material from scratch. Needless to say we cannot tell you exactly how, but if you look closely at your stock you’ll see our famous Accublock® integrated and machined right into your stock.
