Default RE: browning blr vs. remington 7600

All of my new rifles are Brownings.

All of my used rifles are Remington 760 Gamemasters.

I still own one Model 6 Remington.

The 7600's are cheap pieces of crap that do not have the accuracy that the 760 had. The wood stocks are not all that nice - like the old RKW High Gloss finish on the Gamemasters.

Anyone that thinks that they need a synthetic stock for a rifle - probably doesn't know what they are talking about.

Anyone that wants a military style rifle - doesn't want a hunting rifle.

The Brownings are a nice gun, good fit and finish with very accurate barrels and actions. I have seen 1 bad BLR that was machined poorly and could not be repaired. The ammo quite literaly blew up inside of the chamber.

If you wanted a clip fed rifle then a Browning is NOT the rifle for you.

I own a Browning Pump Rifle in .300 Winchester Magnum and it uses the same clip as the BAR - Browning Automatic Rifle. $60 each!

The clips for a Remington sells at Wal Mart for about $15!

You can buy a 10 shot clip for the Remington for about $40!

Which one is better? That is up to you.

I would buy a used Gamemaster or a new Browning - Period!
