Browning X-Bolt Stalker Bolt Action Rifle 25-06 Remington 24" Barrel 4 Round Black
Dark gray composite stock, matte blue barrel and action, detachable rotary magazine, short throw bolt, adjustable trigger, bolt-action -- SCOPE NOT INCLUDED
All Business. No Nonsense. The X-Bolt Composite Stalker isn't flashy . . . but it is durable, accurate, well-thought-out, and has all the elegant lines and curves you'll find on its "prettier" siblings. Most importantly it is capable of the overall exceptional accuracy that has caused the A-bolt to be compared with custom guns costing thousands more.
Composite works harder. More and more hunters are turning to composite-stocked firearms for many reasons. Probably the biggest is that they no longer want to bang up that pretty Walnut stock.
The X-Bolt Composite Stalker is an excellent rifle choice for deer hunting in conditions where a hunter may not wish to take the traditional Walnut stocked rifle. The X-Bolt Composite Stalker's stock is made from tough, Composite material that can take a beating. Don't think it would be slippery, unattractive or uncomfortable to fire.
The stock is textured for a secure grip from forearm to pistol grip. It also has a comfortable palm swell. The black stock -- with a tint of gray -- has perhaps the most rugged appearance and performance of any Browning composite stock ever.
Finished to perfection. The barrel, bolt, and receiver are also finished in a flat, durable non-glare surface. This is a rifle with all the deluxe features of the X-Bolt family, but rugged enough for the demanding hard-core deer, elk, and sheep hunters.

The 25-06 Remington, introduced in 1969, is another Remington cartridge that had a long history as a wildcat cartridge. Based on the 30-06 case necked down to accept a .257-inch bullet, it is credited to A.O. Neidner in 1920, and Remington retained Neidner's original design. Remington's standardization of this long-popular wildcat was met with open arms; the 25-06 has become the most popular 25-caliber cartridge, fast and accurate with a fine selection of loads. Velocities range from a light 85-grain varmint load at 3550 feet per second to a 120-grain load at 2990. With heavier bullets the 25-06 is used for game up to elk, but it is perhaps at its best for pronghorn and deer-sized game in open country, where its flat trajectory shines. Most major ammunition manufacturers offer a selection of 25-06 loads and rifles are available from numerous manufacturers.
