“m48”

Get a closer look at some of the most exciting new hunting rifles for 2018.

The new M48 NCH is Nosler’s fresh take on a hunting handgun. With a solid-bottom receiver, the NCH is a single-shot pistol based on company’s M48 rifle.

From budget guns to London bests, these rifles offer something for every hunter and every budget.

The 7-pound Long Range Carbon is a full-length, heavy-barreled rifle that’s just as suited for the sandbags at the target range as it is for slogging through snow and cedars on the crest of a mountain. A heavy barrel and light weight are normally mutually exclusive, but the combination is made possible by carbon fiber.

Featuring a 15-inch stainless steel barrel that’s threaded for a muzzle device or suppressor and chambered in six popular calibers, the single-shot M48 Independence balances well and feels surprisingly good in the hand.

Loaded with premium features, the new M48 Mountain Carbon looks to set a new standard for backcountry hunting rifles.

Here are five of the lightest big-game hunting rifles on the market today, all of which weigh 6 pounds or less.
