There are 6 pages of comments but not one person has talked about what I think is the biggest problem with break action guns with a two piece stock. And that is the problem with the forearm. I know alot of shooter who have wandering POI's that are directly attrributable to a forearm that is separate.
Most of us on here who shoot alot can probably shoot a BB gun better than a regular guy can shoot a BR rifle. That was not the point of the thread.
Not one guy has addressed the differences between the bolt and the break action. And why one is stonger than the other. And hence a stronger action will in theory be a more accurate rifle. Someone please eplain how that is wrong??
Please.
The problem is you can't.
Separate forearms present alot of problems to the accuracy of rifles. It is that simple. And that separate forearm can cause wandering POI's on rifles. Heck I bet I have more break action rifles and barrels than most on this forum. They are my favorite rifle(and handgun). But I know the above facts to be true.
You guys think I am attacking break action rifles. I am not. I am only pointing out the inadequacies.
Plus what ever group you shoot off a bench. You can at least double or triple that group in the woods. So if you are shooting a 4" group off the bench. Then you are easily shoting a 10"-12" group in the woods. On that I would bet.
And if you are shooting a 4" group at 100 yards. Then you have absolutely no business what so ever shooting at game past 125 yards. Period. Tom.
