Nosler M48 Independence 7mm-08 15in Barrel Cerakote Finish

The Nosler M48 Independence 15 7mm-08 presents itself as a purpose-built bolt-action handgun for the serious handgun hunter, combining the rugged Model 48 short action heritage with a one-piece billet aluminum mid-grip stock to deliver a rigid, bedded action and a free-floated 15-inch heavy-contour barrel for match-oriented accuracy at extended handgun ranges. Built and assembled by the Nosler Rifle division in Bend, Oregon using US-made components, this handgun offers a 1:9 twist ideal for stabilizing the wide selection of 7mm-08 projectiles hunters rely on for varmint hunting, silhouette competition, and big game work, while the threaded muzzle accepts brakes or suppressors to tailor recoil and sound signature for different hunting scenarios. Finished entirely in durable Cerakote from stock to barreled action, the M48 Independence resists the elements during long glassing sits and wet conditions encountered in the field. The engineers at Nosler incorporated feedback from top handgun hunters to produce a compact, 22.5-inch overall platform that balances precision, controllability, and ergonomics, making the M48 Independence a highly capable choice for those who demand a handgun that shoots like a rifle.
