Browning 031065218 BAR MK3 .308 Win 18" 11-Round Bolt-Action Rifle

The Browning BAR MK3 .308 Win 18" 10-Round Bolt-Action Rifle is a purpose-built platform designed for tactical shooters, law enforcement professionals, and precision hunters who demand reliability in intermediate-range engagements. This rifle bridges the gap between compact portability and full-power .308 Winchester performance, making it ideal for vehicle-mounted applications, building searches, or mobile operations where a standard 24" rifle proves cumbersome.

The 18" barrel delivers the ballistic authority of .308 Winchester while maintaining a total length of 48.5 inches—practical for confined spaces and rapid target acquisition. Browning's engineering in the BAR MK3 leverages proven bolt-action mechanics, delivering sub-MOA accuracy potential when paired with quality ammunition and proper shooting technique. The 10-round capacity provides tactical flexibility without compromising handling; magazine changes remain swift and intuitive under stress.

At 7 pounds, the rifle maintains reasonable weight distribution for tactical carbine manipulation and provides sufficient mass to absorb .308 Winchester recoil—a critical factor when maintaining sight picture during rapid follow-up shots. The compact profile does not sacrifice the mechanical advantages of full-power rifle cartridges: energy retention, penetration capability, and ballistic coefficients that outperform intermediate cartridges at extended ranges. Operators in law enforcement tactical teams, military special operations, and precision hunting will find this rifle to be an invaluable tool.
