The Browning AB3 Pro Composite .308 Win is a bolt-action hunting rifle chambered in .308 Winchester with a 22-inch barrel from Browning (brand part no. 035851218). The AB3 Pro line adds a spiral-fluted barrel and bolt body, a threaded muzzle with a thread protector, and a two-piece bolt handle with a teardrop knob. The action is bedded and the barrel is free floated for consistent accuracy, with a short 60-degree bolt lift that clears scope turrets. It is built as a hunting rifle for the field, wearing a weather-resistant composite stock.
