That's exactly the target market. Many European countries limit semi-auto centerfire to a maximum 3 rounds total, some have banned them all together. It probably won't sell well in North America as we can hunt with semi auto's, albeit only 5 rounds max in Canada (except some 223's). Driven hunts for boar,etc. are also not popular here.
The Blaser sells relatively well here due to the ability to change calibers, but the real reason for its success overseas is that in many countries they can only own a very limited number of rifles. With a Blaser/Sauer/Mauser, they buy one or two receivers/stocks and as many calibers/barrels as they want, and they technically still have only one gun.
For these reasons, I can't see the Browning selling well anywhere.
