Default RE: What are resonable groups to expect from a Browning BAR?

I got flamed once before for saying this. But I will say it again. I like the Browning BAR, but I have never known the rifle to be an accurate rifle. I have owned 4 or 5 of them. Most grouped around 1-1/2 to 2-1/2 inches at 100 yards. Especially with a 5 shot group. Most 3 shot groups were not much better.I have shot some reloads in them also, but the groups did not improve that much. I have also been around a bunch of them, and they all had about the same accuracy.

Functioning on the ones I had were great. No functioning problems at all. This is a great hunting rifle. And even with groups like this, a 300 yard shot is no problem. Tom.
