Howa Tactical Bolt Knobs fit & function & beat threaded knobs by a longways in strength because the one piece bolt-body/bolt-handle remain complete & are integral with just the addition of the knob.....Thanks for the best money can buy in production or custom.


Advantages: Function & strength....The best money can buy.

Disadvantages: Nothing but advantages

Great improvement! Mad the bolt run smooth only thing is the edges of the grove is a little rough

Advantages: Made cocking much easier coz of the extension this bolt knob provides. Feels like its part of the whole knob

Advantages: The ease and speed of manipulating the bolt is now a big advantage over the standard bolt knob.

Disadvantages: None in my view.

Tactical Works has the best price, period!
The fit of the bolt on bolt knob is very good. It’s smooth and the gap lines up perfectly. I didn’t use the rubber o-ring and the gap is nearly invisible. Once tightened, it’s solid and it looks like it’s a machined knob. It doesn’t turn or slip. Although even if it turns, it will function just as well. Besides adding bulk to the knob, it lengthens the bolt knob about 5/8 to 3/4 inch.

It fit snug and fit flush without use of o-rings. It was tight and secure and added just enough length to the handle to be what I needed. Well worth the money

Advantages: Secure and gives more leverage. Looks nice too.

Disadvantages: I don’t have 2 of them. It is a great add on.

I purchased this for a CZ 527, not a Howa. Just took a chance it was going to be adaptable, and it was. My CZ 527 has the older forged bolt handle, not the later MIM type, so the knob diameter is about .700", not the latest .750". This add on knob actually fits well although the CZ shank is rectangular instead of round. I left out the o-rings, and added a bit of dark hardening filler to fill in the gaps between the rectangular handle shank and knob hole so I cannot see any gaps. This handle has the correct feel and look for my rifle.

Advantages: Simple to install, and secure.

Disadvantages: None

the easiest way to fasten this knob so it does not spin around is to add a few layers of teflon plumbing joint tape to the bolt knob then fasten the 2 halves together. you get a good snug seal and easy removal if the knob is removed

Worked great. I had to do a little smithing to the angle of the bolt handle but it is well made and looks great.

Shipped quickly and price was good. The bolt knob itself is the perfect size. Adds about .75 inch of length to the bolt and a slight texture and increased diameter. Install was straight forward, use the o rings to lock it in. Mine fits rock solid on a howa mini 1500 bolt.

Advantages: Its the balls

Disadvantages: None

Love it! Fits great and looks awesome! Much more comfortable!
I will say I wasn't able to use the o-rings because it would leave a gap, so I put a few drops of red loctite on the bolt knob then installed this bolt knob using blue loctite on the threads. Doesn't move at all, holds tight, very happy!

I bought two of this bolt on knob: one for weatherby vanguard S2 and the other for Howa 1500 Legacy Sport superlite. Both of them are made by Howa and are almost identical in most aspects. Bolt on knobs from Tactical Works fit fine and I got what I wanted. One thing is that the rubber rings to be used (included) were too thick. If I use two of them it will have huge opening between knob parts. One was still too thick. What I did was to use rubber shavings and stick them in: shavings gave enough pressure to keep knobs rolling, good pressure to retain halves in place. Do I recommend this knobs? Yes.

Advantages: It’s somewhat hard to find bolt on knobs for Howa/weatherby somehow.. this is the best I came across.

Disadvantages: Little mods needed as I wrote in my comment. Mod didn’t involve any metal working, just shaving rubber and finding good amount to be sandwiched.

Knob was easy to install, fit snugly on my Howa 1500 mini in 6.5 Grendel. Easily clears the bell on my Vortex 3-9 x 40mm scope, but makes for a modified technique to work the bolt vs. no scope.

Advantages: Much more ergonomic to use than just the weird factory knob, feels better in the hand, fits with my scope.

Disadvantages: Howa Mini's bolt throw does make it end up close to scope tube on my 3-9 x 40 Vortex, very large scopes might not work.

Very good product. Easy to install, makes it easier to manipulate the bolt. For the price hard to beat. Like it so much I put it on 5 howa's and given several out to friends that have howa's.
