Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Update on Nosler m48 Outfitter rifle...

Hey guys,
I said I'd update y'all on my Nosler Outfitter in 9.3x62. Nosler sent it back after a montth or two, and it's fixed. They modified the feed rails on the internal box magazine so the round nose ammo would feed more to the center and enter the chamber.
It feeds reliably now, and I just had a little time to pop off about 4 rounds at 50 paces offhand with the open sights, and it grouped and handled well and I really like it.

It weighs about 7 lbs and kicks pretty good though, but the trigger guard didn't wack my fingers and neither did the front swivel stud. The grip style on the stock is pretty funky but I can get used to it.

Nosler was really good to deal with and they even re-cerakoted a ding on the barrel.

It shoulders fast and well, and if shouldered fast with closed eyes upon opening them the sights are lined-up.

I have a feeling it'll end up one of my favorite rifles.

Thanks for the update.

I just picked up a NIb Outfitter in .35 Whelen from a guy at work.

I got it for two reasons:

1: You can't say no to a 35 Whelen. Ever.
2. He practically gave it away!

So far the fit and finish is excellent. Hope to have scope mounted this week and hit the range with it.
