I teetered on the edge about an All Weather that was on Gun Broker for some weeks, then it disappeared. Stainless steel, laminate with the palm...
Buyer beware, Browning's website is not always accurate in product descriptions. Weight of my Xbolt Eclipse hunter shows 6.7 lbs, same as the...
And BTW, I considered one of those maple Xbolts, but they looked too beautiful to hunt with!
I like the 5 shot group in your avatar. My Xbolt Eclipse does that. But that's with my handloads, not factory. But I only shot 2 boxes of factory...
It's all the rage. In the last 18 months all manufacturers have started making them. Low recoil, with 6.5 high BC bullets. But if you want to hunt...
I have 2 Xbolts, no problem with stripping mount holes. Used Browning Xbolt rings on 6.5 CM / Leupolds on 243. You better be ready to put a brake...
I have not broken my Brownings in with any disciplined regimen. Shot 2 boxes of factory. Cleaned. Shot another box, cleaned. Shot 16 handloads,...
David, my 243 Xbolt Hunter (walnut stock) has been one of my favorites since I bought it almost 10 years ago. The palm swell and finish of the bolt...
I may try a box of that Winchester Power Max if I run out of handloads and don't have time. I wonder what the variance in headspacing and throat is...
Chow Dog, did you ever go through with your plan to convert your 270 BAR to 7-08? Wondered if that's even possible, considering it would be going...
Quite welcome. I'm interested in hearing other BAR owners' accuracy reports.
This target is more typical...3 shot cloverleaf with a flier 1" away. 100 yards. 130gr sp. Hate those fliers and not sure if it's me or what but...
I was happy this day with the 130gr Hdy sp flat base. 52.0gr W760. 200 yards up a hill. Didn't want to risk ruining it with a 3rd shot! LOL
Packers Fan~ Ditto here, sorry for the lagging response. Here are a few loads that I've found to be very accurate in my BAR. I bump the shoulder...
PF, I know how frustrating this can be. See my post above. In general, I think factory loads to do not perform as well as handloads because they...
Strange this forum is so vacant. These are guns people should be enthusiastic about!
Your HSM Bergers are all you seem to need, wow! If you miss your game, its not the gun's fault, that's for sure!
My experience with my 270 BAR is that it is harder to load for and find an accurate load, but it can be done. Autoloaders may have some inherent...
ChowDawg, your last post is very informative. In fact I came on to this forum to see if anyone had experiences with the BAR in 270Win because I do...
