About Browning AB3 Hunter
The AB3 includes a host of features you will also find on the X-Bolt rifle, notably the barrel. Arguably the most important factor in accuracy, the AB3 sports a high quality barrel that is made from cold rolled steel and precision button rifled. A premium Inflex Technology recoil pad reduces felt recoil by absorbing recoil and using directional deflection to pull the comb down and away from your face when shooting. The bolt unlock button allows the bolt to be opened with the top tang safety in the on safe position. With the AB3 you can have the accuracy and performance you demand in a hunting rifle with more money left over for ammunition.

Detailed Review
The Browning AB3 Hunter is a bolt-action rifle designed for hunters and shooters who demand high-quality performance at an affordable price. The rifle is available in a variety of calibers, including standard hunting rounds like .243 Winchester and 30-06 Springfield.
One of the stand-out features of the AB3 Hunter is its accuracy. The rifle is built with a free-floating barrel that is hand-chambered for improved accuracy. Additionally, the bolt is built with a three-lug design that allows for a short 60-degree bolt lift, which makes it easier to operate the rifle quickly and quietly when taking a shot.
The AB3 Hunter’s stock is also designed with hunters in mind. It’s made from tough, durable synthetic material that resists weather and wear. The design of the stock includes a comfortable grip and a raised cheekpiece that provides a consistent sight picture. The buttstock is also adjustable for length of pull, allowing shooters to customize the rifle to their body size and shooting style.
In addition to its accuracy and reliable performance, the AB3 Hunter is loaded with features that make it a great choice for hunters. The rifle comes equipped with a detachable box magazine that holds four rounds of ammunition. The magazine release is located near the trigger guard for quick and easy access, even with gloves on. The rifle also features an adjustable trigger that can be set from 3 to 5 pounds for a customized trigger pull.
The Browning AB3 Hunter is a versatile rifle that is suitable for a wide range of hunting applications. Whether you’re stalking big game in the mountains or hunting small game in the woods, this rifle has the accuracy and reliability you need to get the job done.

The finish is smooth as silk and evenly applied. There is more than ample checkering, with two panels on the fore-end and one on each side of the pistol grip. Executed in a point pattern, the diamonds are nicely pointed; there is a border around each pane

The Browning AB3 Hunter is a fine functioning rifle, but it is not worth a 50% premium over certain other walnut stocked economy rifles that are just as suitable for most hunting applications and are more pleasing to the eye. In the same price category as

The AB3 is Browning’s hat in the ring on an inexpensive bolt action rifle. It combines components cheaper than their more premium X-Bolt (X-Bolt review here) while still offering some of the premium Browning features. How does it fit in the crowded budget
