Browning BPS Stalker 12 Gauge Shotgun 28" Barrel 3" Chamber Round Invector + Pump Action 012212304

Pump shotguns have always been known for strength. And the BPS Stalker with its solid steel construction and tough graphic-fiberglass composite stock and rugged bottom ejection action is the toughest of all. The action of the BPS is sound and reliable. All components are durably constructed of solid steel and are housed inside a receiver machined from a solid block of forged steel. The BPS is built to last - even after years of the most rugged hunting. Double action slide bars, machined from heat-treated steel, eliminate twisting or binding. The result is smooth operation and the ability to stay on target and deliver quick follow-up shots.

Stock: Black Composite stock and forearm with a non-glare finish on the stock, barrel and receiver.

Back-Bored Barrels: All 12-gauge shotguns feature back-bored barrels. A bore diameter increased to its maximum allowable specification reduces the friction of the shot charge against the barrel wall. Instead of trying to overcome friction, powder gases expend more energy on the wad base, resulting in an increase in shot velocity. Because there is less constriction or pressure from the forcing cones on a shot charge, there are fewer deformed shot pellets. A greater number of ballistically superior round pellets in a shot charge means more uniform patterns-delivering more shot pellets in the effective part of the pattern.
Back-boring works hand in hand with Browning's proven Invector-Plus interchangeable choke tube system. The longer choke taper inside an Invector-Plus choke tube produces patterns with more uniform densities.
