Browning BAR MK3 Stalker | .300 Win Mag | 24″ | 031048229

The Browning BAR MK3 Stalker is a full-size semi-automatic sporting rifle chambered in .300 Winchester Magnum, built around a hammer-forged barrel and a lightweight alloy receiver. The design pairs a gas system with a seven-lug rotary bolt to reduce felt recoil and preserve consistent lock-up for accurate follow-up shots. This configuration is oriented toward field hunting and long-range stalking where quick follow-up and repeatable accuracy matter. A suitable optic under $1,000 that pairs well with this rifle is the Vortex Viper PST Gen II 2.5-10×44, which balances magnification range and optical clarity for big-game work.

Applications: big-game hunting and precision field shooting.
