I love my browning blr in .358 win caliber. Accurate,reliable,hard hitting.
What more could you want in a lever gun?

TerryM- Glad to see a fellow .358 owner/shooter. How do you like yours?
I too will definately own another BLR, but my dilemma is in which caliber? I have a Win 70 in.300WSM, a custom built .280 Ackley Imp. on a 98 Mauser action, a .338 Win Mag in a Ruger No 1B. As far as covering the table of No. American game, I can kill anything that walks from here to the North Pole!
Browning has chambered the new .325WSM in a BLR. What do you think about that one? An '06 maybe?
Decisions, Decisions!!!!!

For the man who has ALMOST all the rifles he needs-
.293 Bremingchester superdupermag sounds like you got the bases covered. I would love to have a blr/bar shortrac/a-bolt in .325.
wanna adopt me?

Sure stalkingbear as long as you bring a great shooting varmint gun with you that "Daddy" can shoot whenever he wants to!
On the serious side, if you do go and buy a BLR 81 in .358 Win, I'd be willing to bet a paycheck that it'll soon become one of your favorite cartridge/rifles that you hunt with.

acctualy ive had mine jam twice the entire time ive had it i think its more or less on the type ofammunition you use not the gun itself

I would love to buy a Browning BLR, but some have terrible triggers. Good luck.

I like the idea of a lever over a bolt. I may try a BLR in .243 or 7-08mm.
