Thread: Howa 1500 short action or Mini action???????

Hi All

My research into a suitable .223 as my first (owned) centre fire rifle has brought me to a need for a decision.

I'm almost certain that I'll go for a Howa 1500 1:9 twist but can't decide between the new mini action or the older model short action. Price of the short action is better but am looking for the best accuracy (in theory)

Any comments/suggestions/experiences greatly appreciated.
