Gun Descriptions

The Browning® AB3 Hunter Bolt-Action Rifle comes with a satin finished walnut stock that features a straight comb and the Inflex Technology recoil pad. The barrel and receiver feature a matte blued finish, and the receiver is drilled and tapped for scope mounts. The AB3 bolt utilizes a rotating head with 3 locking lugs common to all A-Bolt centerfire rifles. 3 locking lugs allow a short 60° bolt handle lift for fast cycling and increased scope clearance. The bolt knob's shape is slightly flattened and canted at an ergonomic 30° angle that fits the hand naturally. The AB3 uses a top-tang safety that's quick to deploy, and a bolt unlock button allows you to open the bolt for loading or inspection with the tang safety in the safe position. A detachable, steel box magazine allows quick re-loading and safe unloading. A free-floated steel barrel delivers fine accuracy needed for long range shooting. The Browning AB3 Hunter Bolt-Action Rifle represents a great value for a high quality hunting rifle.

With a 24” version of our cold hammer forged and lapped barrel, the 557 American picks up where the short-barreled Sporter left off. The longer barrel squeezes a bit more velocity out of the chosen chamberings, to include the increasingly popular 6.5 Creedmoor. Its American-pattern stock has strong pistol grip with a bit of a palm swell and is adorned with a classic checkering design borrowed from our UHR. With a high comb and no sights, this rifle is intended for use with a scope, and built-in dovetails mean there are no bases required — allowing scopes to be mounted directly to the action and enabling a simpler, more robust attachment method.
