Nosler M48 Independence bolt-action handgun chambered in .308 Win with a 15-inch free-floated 416R stainless heavy-contour barrel, one-piece 6061-T6 aluminum chassis, and Cerakote finish.
The Nosler M48 Independence is a precision bolt-action handgun built on the Model 48 short action with a rigid, one-piece billet 6061-T6 aluminum mid-grip stock and a 15-inch free-floated barrel. The barreled action and stock are separately Cerakoted — the stock in Gun Metal Grey and the barreled action in Matte Black. The M48 Independence is designed for accurate, repeatable performance in handgun hunting and silhouette or precision target applications. Pair this handgun with a compact low-power variable optic such as the Vortex Crossfire II 1-6×24 for a durable sighting solution that complements the platform.
