Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Browning A-Bolt III in 6.5 Creedmoor

I just picked up a Micro Stalker from CDNN and am quite pleased with it. The short LOP and 20" barrel are perfect for blinds and tree stands on a cold VT day. My goal was to get a beater rifle in 6.5 and I hate the RAR stocks. I was able to shoot 2 groups at 50 yards only but it will keep Hornady AW ammo in a nice little clover leaf. They are $540 with a 3-9x T/C scope and mounts along with a sling. Browning is doing a $50 mail in rebate as well.

I don't see anything posted here about the AB3's so they must not be very popular, but I am a fan of this tang safety and locking bolt. Scoped with a Burris FFII 3-9x it weighed 7lbs 5oz.

That sounds like a solid value. How is that scope?

Sounds like a good combo. Wish they made a left hand version of the A-B III

The T/C scope that comes with it is Chinese of course and pretty heavy for a cheap scope. In low light it was brighter than the older Burris FFII that I threw on to test the rifle. The barrel is fully free-floating from the factory and the non-adjustable trigger breaks nicely at 3.25lbs on my RCBS scale.
