The Browning AB3 Hunter rifle in 6.5 Creedmoor (brand part no. 035801282) pairs a matte blued 22-inch steel sporter barrel with a satin-finished black walnut stock for a rifle built on classic hunting lines. Browning cuts the bolt to a fast 60-degree throw for quicker follow-up shots, and free-floats the barrel with a target crown for consistent accuracy. A polymer recoil pad softens felt recoil, and the receiver is drilled and tapped for a scope of your choice. Among bolt action rifles, this AB3 Hunter favors long-range hunters who want the 6.5 Creedmoor’s flat trajectory in a classic wood-stocked rifle.
