Some of the best bolt-actions aren’t new, they’re used. Here are five models you should pursue.

Here are five top-notch backcountry rifles, all of which are lightweight and superbly designed.

The M48 Mountain Carbon is perhaps the ultimate do-all rifle. Its carbon-fiber wrapped barrel and high-end carbon-fiber stock results in a sub-.75-inch rifle that handles like an ultralight yet shoots like a mid-weight.

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

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.

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.

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.

For 2018, Nosler is offering a hunting rifle that may be the perfect complement to their cartridge lineup—the new M48 Long-Range Carbon.

Nosler’s M48 Trophy Grade Rifle features the company’s proprietary action and is guaranteed to shoot sub-MOA groups. At $1,745 it’s less than most custom rifles.
