Default RE: Browning Micro Hunter

I don't own one but my brother does. All I can say it is one sweet setup. Try one on for size, and remember to consider whatever clothes you'll be wearing while hunting. I think a lot of guys hunt with rifles too long of pull, once they are wearing hunting clothes.

Leave the gun in firing position and work the action, don't take the gun off your shoulder. As you raise your right hand (palm side up) to grasp the bolt, the bolt should be contact your palm so your fingers can curl easily around it. You should also be able to work the bolt back to the end of its stroke without pulling your face out of the way.

And then, it has to generally feel good to you. After that, you're a long ways toward having a rifle you'll be able to handle well in hunting situations. That micro hunter fits me just about perfectly, may heave to get one some day.
