The A-Bolt Rifle is a bolt-action rifle made by the American Browning Arms Company. It is mainly manufactured by Fabrique Nationale de Herstal in Belgium, A.T.I. in American and Miroku Corp. in Japan. It is a popular hunting rifle due to its accuracy and availabilty.

The A-Bolt rifle is a bolt-action rifle, it uses a non-rotating bolt sleeve. When the bolt is unlocked, smoothness is achieved with three guide ribs aligned with three locking lugs, enabling precise movement. These three locking lugs also largely increase bolt strength. The bolt's smoothness is also increased with a unique cartridge depressor, the cartridge depressor stays in place independent of the bolt's position. Near the end of the reloading cycle, when the bolt is re-inserted, the bolt moves gently over the cartridges in the magazine. The barrel is free-floating and the recoil lug is glass bedded.

The A-Bolt rifle uses a detachable box magazine. Magazine capacity depends on caliber and is as follows - Magnum, Winchester Short Magnum calibers: One in chamber, three in magazine. Standard calibers: One in chamber, four in magazine. .223 Remington: One in chamber, five in magazine.

The A-Bolt rilfe has many variations, yet most are small differences such as different barrel lengths and caliber.
