ExpressStrength
and accuracy
Derived from the B25 shotgun, the
Browning Express rifle enjoys the same reputation and arouses the same passions among
hunters. It is intended for the big game enthusiast. Hand-made in our factory at Herstal,
these rifles receive the care and attention of craftsmen who have worked exclusively on
luxury firearms for many years. Designed to receive very powerful cartridges, the Browning
CCS Express rifle is uncommonly strong, while remaining light and well balanced. They thus
offer fast handling and excellent pointability. In order to withstand the high pressures
produced by spent cartridges, the action frame of the CCS has a reinforced base and sides.
The barrels are cold hammered in high strength steel and then brazed into a sturdy
monoblock.

make this an essential and reliable ally for memorable hunting expeditions in the bush.
