Nosler M48 Mountain Carbon 27 Nosler Bolt-Action Rifle - Gray Finish

The Nosler M48 Mountain Carbon 27 Nosler bolt-action rifle combines genuine lightweight performance with serious accuracy and reliability—without forcing you to choose between those goals or your budget. Built on the proven M48 action, this rifle pairs a 24-inch carbon fiber-wrapped, cut-rifled barrel with a carbon fiber reinforced stock to deliver a rifle that tips the scales at just 6 pounds. The gray Tungsten Grey Cerakote finish on all steel surfaces provides robust weather protection, while the balanced design feels natural in your hands on long mountain hunts or backcountry treks.

Every component is engineered for hunters who refuse to compromise. The match-grade barrel is guaranteed to shoot sub-MOA accuracy when loaded with Nosler ammunition. A Timney trigger with a 2-position safety gives you crisp, reliable ignition, and glass-and-aluminum pillar bedding locks the barreled action into the stock with precision. The hinged floorplate allows quick ammunition access, and the 5/8x24 threaded muzzle accepts suppressors or other muzzle devices. At 45 inches overall with a 13.5-inch length of pull, it's built for standard-length shooting.

The 27 Nosler cartridge delivers flat-shooting, wind-bucking performance for extended-range hunting, and the 1-8.5 twist stabilizes modern, high-BC hunting bullets. Three-round magazine capacity keeps the package trim and light. Whether you're glassing ridges at altitude, navigating dense timber, or preparing for a remote hunt where every ounce matters, the M48 Mountain Carbon delivers the accuracy and speed you need without the weight penalty that ultra-light rifles typically demand.
