The Browning A-Bolt III (AB3) Short Action Magnum magazine is a factory-original, steel and polymer detachable magazine built to handle the demands of serious big-game hunting. If you own an AB3 chambered in 270 WSM or 300 WSM, having a spare loaded magazine in your pack is smarter than fumbling with loose rounds in your coat pocket while game is in sight. This 3-round magazine feeds reliably and sits just proud of the stock, giving you a quick tactile confirmation that a mag is seated and ready to go.
Browning has been standard-fitting quality detachable magazines on their rifles for decades—a feature many competitors still charge extra for. The AB3 magazine carries on that tradition with a robust steel box and reinforced polymer components that withstand the abuse of field use. The offset feed design ensures consistent, smooth feeding shot after shot. At just under 5 ounces, it adds minimal weight to your kit, making it easy to carry a spare without sacrifice.
Whether you're hunting elk, mule deer, or whitetail at distance, having a second mag loaded and ready in your pack removes one variable from the equation. Keep one on hand, and never second-guess your ammunition supply in the field again.
