Classic Browning bolt-action rifle in .308 Winchester with 22" free-floating barrel, matte blued finish, satin walnut stock, and 5-round detachable magazine. Fast 60-degree bolt lift and Inflex recoil pad.
The AB3 Hunter represents Browning's commitment to delivering genuine rifle performance without unnecessary complexity or expense. This is a rifle that works—in the field, at the range, and when it matters most.
Accuracy begins with the barrel. The AB3 Hunter features a 22-inch free-floating barrel manufactured from cold-rolled steel and precision button-rifled with a 1:12" twist. The free-floating design eliminates contact between barrel and stock, allowing the barrel to vibrate naturally and consistently—a fundamental principle of rifle accuracy that has stood the test of time.
The AB3 bolt utilizes a rotating head with three locking lugs and a short 60-degree lift. This design delivers two critical advantages: fast cycling for follow-up shots and improved scope clearance. The bolt unlock button allows you to open the bolt with the safety engaged, a practical feature for loading, unloading, and inspection without fumbling with the safety.
The Hunter model combines a satin black walnut stock with a matte blued barrel and receiver. This is pure Browning—understated elegance that endures. The receiver is drilled and tapped for scope mounts, ready for your optics.
The AB3 Hunter is a rifle built for hunters and shooters who understand that reliability, accuracy, and straightforward design never go out of style.
