The third new model being added to their popular Howa/Hogue line of bolt action rifles for 2008.  Using the long-recognized Howa barreled action known for its strength, precision craftsmanship and accuracy, in combination with the Hogue Overmolded™ stock, a proven a winner in non-slip gripping ability and shooting comfort, this new Howa/Hogue is being marketed as the Howa 2•4•1 Youth Model. Built with a 20”, #2 Contour barrel, the Howa 2•4•1 Youth also boasts a shortened 12.87” LOP for proper fit. The Howa 2•4•1 Youth features a shaved receiver and hollowed bolt handle for weight reduction. The best part of this combo is the INCLUSION of an adult Hogue Overmolded™ Stock as a part of the purchase, so that the rifle can “grow” as your son or daughter grows! An upgraded package combo is also available with an award-winning NikkoStirling 3-9x42 Nighteater scope with rings and bases included in the box. The youth stock is available in black only, and the adult stock in OD Green, only. Hogue Overmolded™ stocks normally sell for $300.00 MSRP, and the NikkoStirling riflescope adds another $100.00 (retail) to the value of these packages. Yet, pricing for a non-scoped model is $599.00 and $625.00 for the version with scope package. So, you get the rifle, TWO stocks and the option of adding a reliable scope for right around $600.00. What a deal for one price!
