Every single BAR short track we have had problems with and had to send back to Browning for customers have been chambered for the WSM cartridges.

I take it you have a gun shop bigbulls? what would you recomend to a guy that wants a new style semi in 300wsm. He (brotherinlaw) wanted a r1 but finds them too steep, so he's looking for a substitute

moa at 100 yards is 1/4 inch so your saying your gun shoots 3 rounds in 1/4 to 3/8 inchs at 100...308 is 308 thou of a inch witch i close to 1/4 inch so your saying she shoots 3 rounds in the same or close to same hole,,,,too hard for me to believe...or am i wrong about what a moa is

You are wrong. MOA at 100 yards is 1.047" basically people just say 1".

Here is a cool site to teach you how to figure out MOA

i stand corrected i called my bud and he told me moa is 1 inch at 100 yards,,,i always thought it was one click of the scope...on most scopes 1/4@100 so i guess its 4 clicks=moa..so any halfway good rifle can shoot moa groups at 100. i didnt consider a rifle a great shooter till it cut holes at 100..

I'd get the regular BAR and not the short track.
