Default RE: Browning BAR .300 Win. Mag. with BOSS

:thumbsup1: Thanks for all the insight, guys. I went with the BAR and it is one smooth shooting gun! My father-in-law has a BAR Safari 7mag w/out the BOSS so I had shot one of these guns before. I adjusted the BOSS to the suggested setting on the Browning site for 165 grain bullets and shot. First shot was about 6 inches high(previous owner must have been shooting heavier bullets) so I moved it down and shot 3 more times. Dead on 3 inches high at 100 yds. and you can cover the three shot group with a nickel with two of the three holes almost touching. I had always heard that you could get bolt-action accuracy from a BAR, but I am definitely impressed. And the best thing, absolutely no recoil to speak of from a 300 win mag! The second best thing about it is that the price of the combo(BAR, scope, sling and chaps) was less than the new gun itself sells for wholesale!
