The Howa M1500 Fence Line 6.5 PRC (Model HFN65PRCPR) is a high-performance bolt-action rifle designed for long-range hunters and precision shooters who demand modern cartridge performance and distinctive tactical styling. This model features a 24-inch barrel finished in Flat Dark Earth (FDE) and is dressed in the bold Prairie Reaper Camo pattern. Built on the legendary Howa M1500 action, the Fence Line series delivers exceptional accuracy, reliability, and visual impact in a package optimized for the powerful 6.5 PRC cartridge.

Howa M1500 Action

The foundation of this rifle is the renowned Howa M1500 action. Known worldwide for its strength, smooth operation, and outstanding accuracy, the M1500 features a three-lug bolt design with a short 60-degree bolt throw for fast and reliable cycling. The receiver is machined from a solid block of steel, providing exceptional rigidity and long-term durability. The M1500 action has earned a strong reputation for delivering sub-MOA accuracy right out of the box, making it one of the most trusted and accurate production actions available today.

24-Inch FDE Barrel

This Fence Line model is equipped with a 24-inch barrel finished in Flat Dark Earth (FDE). The FDE coating provides excellent corrosion resistance and reduces glare in bright field conditions. The longer 24-inch barrel maximizes velocity from the powerful 6.5 PRC cartridge, delivering higher muzzle velocities and flatter trajectories at extended ranges. The button-rifled barrel is engineered to provide consistent, repeatable accuracy with both factory ammunition and handloads.

Prairie Reaper Camo Finish

The stock and forend feature the aggressive Prairie Reaper Camo pattern. This high-contrast, multi-color camouflage is specifically designed for open-country, grassland, and prairie environments. The pattern effectively breaks up the rifle’s outline in fields, sagebrush, and transitional terrain, helping hunters stay concealed from game. The durable finish is built to withstand harsh weather and rugged field use while maintaining its appearance over time.

6.5 PRC Cartridge Performance

The 6.5 PRC (Precision Rifle Cartridge) is a modern, high-performance cartridge designed specifically for long-range shooting and hunting. It offers excellent ballistic coefficients, high velocity, and superior long-range energy retention compared to the 6.5 Creedmoor. The 6.5 PRC is particularly well-suited for large game such as elk, moose, and caribou at extended distances. Its efficient design provides outstanding accuracy potential and makes it a favorite among western hunters and long-range enthusiasts who want magnum-level performance with improved efficiency.
