Browning A-Bolt II Composite Stalker .30-06 Bolt-Action Rifle, 22" Ported Barrel
This 1997-production Browning A-Bolt II Composite Stalker pairs a lightweight synthetic stock with a 22-inch ported steel barrel chambered in .30-06 Springfield. Built by Miroku in Japan, it features the A-Bolt’s signature three-lug 60° bolt throw for fast cycling and easy scope clearance, plus a detachable box magazine nested in a hinged floorplate. Factory Burris rings and Weaver-style bases are already installed, giving the next owner a head start on optics setup.

The ported barrel is likely fitted with Browning’s BOSS muzzle brake and tuner system, allowing the shooter to fine-tune accuracy while reducing felt recoil. Combined with the .30-06 chambering, it offers versatile performance for everything from whitetail to elk.
The composite stock keeps weight down and adds weather resistance. Molded diamond checkering provides a secure grip, and the factory recoil pad softens kick on the bench or in the field. Sling-swivel studs are pre-installed for easy carry.
The A-Bolt II’s jewelled bolt body moves smoothly within the receiver, and its three-lug design locks up solidly while shortening the bolt lift to 60°, maintaining hand clearance beneath mounted optics. The adjustable trigger lets the shooter fine-tune pull weight to personal preference.
Manufactured by Miroku Corporation—renowned for precision craftsmanship—this rifle carries Browning’s matte-blued finish on both barrel and receiver for a low-glare hunting profile. Tang safety placement allows quick, intuitive operation without breaking grip.
