RE: Browning opinion ?
Danny45...I have owned three of them ...06 Medallion...270 hunter-300 wsm stainless stalker and shoot my buddies 7 rem mag Hunter when I visit him...I don' t like the design details of the gun period. It has more negatives than positives in my book let me list them out.
negatives:
Magazine clip assembly limits OAL you can set cartridges to if your a handloader
Trigger and material its made of
exposed springs in the trigger assembly
Cheap wood stocks that are stained to look better
Floppy synthetic stocks
Excessive gap for the factory free floating which accumulates debris
Safety when using gloves
Extractor
Non field strippable bolt..pay a gunsmith or browning to strip it and clean it
Find a gunsmith that knows how to work on the gun or try to customize it..ie barrels, triggers etc
Positives:
Great shooting out of the box rifle..only one i owned did not shoot (06 medallion)
Very Good stock design
