Browning X-Bolt Western Hunter - ATACS AU - 28 Nosler - Limited Edition:
Top tier accuracy gives confidence at longer distances. Not every kind of hunting and every kind of hunter demands or needs the kind of accuracy and performance offered by this rifle. But if you do, the entire package is configured to provide a top level hunting experience when you know there is a chance you will need to reach out beyond 200 or even 300 yards -- distances very common in western big game and varmint hunting. And make no mistake, this rifle, when fitted with good optics and partnered with the right ammo and the right shooter, can reach way beyond this. It is a 1000 yard capable rifle. And as far as we, the hunters, are concerned, that kind of distance may not be relevant for most hunting, but it does give us total confidence at hunting ranges where we still have bullet and load effectiveness on game animals..
The list of features below includes many of the proven X-Bolt features plus the extras that make this rifle so special. As a Limited availability rifle, it has a limited production run and the potential for any future runs is uncertain. So, if you like what you see, check this rifle out.

BROWNING, A-TACS CAMOUFLAGE AND THE SCIENCE OF CONCEALMENT.
A-TACS Camo patterns are created utilizing a totally new, patent-pending approach to maximize concealment.
It starts with a collection of colors taken straight from the outdoors and photographed in carefully controlled lighting. A mathematical algorithm takes the colors and writes organically-shaped pixels using the specific color information. The resulting pattern, while still digital is far more organic in appearance than other digital patterns because A-TACS Camo replaces the unnatural angled pixels with organic pixels. The organic pixels are then digitally modified to create real world elements without subscribing to the traditional limb and leaf mimicking patterns. The end results are patterns that eliminate the human outline from as close as a few feet and minimizing the blobbing effect when viewed from a distance.
Just as nature varies, A-TACS Camo doesnt take a one-pattern-fits-all approach. A-TACS camouflage patterns were created to perform in climatic zones containing either arid or timber climates. The arid pattern (AU) is mostly brown with small samplings of green. For temperate, forested climates where green colors dominate, FG (Foliage/Green) is the best choice. These patterns are different not only in color but also in their design. In other words, they are not the same pattern in different colors, to do so would minimize effectiveness.
Once you wear A-TACS Camo patterns in the field, you will be a believer in their effectiveness and performance in getting you closer to whatever game you are pursuing.
Put A-TACS Camo and Hells Canyon Speed to the test.
