i also would not take shots 300 or over either. 250 yds. is also uncomfortable. im not expecting the BAR to be a tac driver, but i also didnt want it to shoot 2-inch groups at 100 yds.

Sounds like the BAR might be the gun for you, it can easily shoot sub-minute of whitetail at 200. I have wanted one for a while as well, it is in line behind the BLR on my wish list.

its lookin like that is the right gun for me.

Try one out. I've seen some that are sub MOA and I've seen some that are a 3" wonder gun at 100 yards.

I'd stay away from the BOSS system all-together.

i wasnt planning on getting the BOSS system, i was gonna get the LongTrac.

Sometimes the BAR comes with the BOSS already screwed on the end of the muzzle.

It works, but it is complicated, but if you figure it out, it can help, my dad has one on his A-Bolt 7mm Rem Mag, it does make a difference, but I find that my Remington 673 in .308 Win.actually shoots consistantlybetter.
It'll probably get better once I get ahold of some Outer's Bore Foam.

For most hunting situations a semi auto is more than accurate enough. Most people want a gun that will shoot sub moa though the majority of people never shoot over 75 yards at a deer. I hunt West Texas where you might have a shot over 400 - 500 yards but the farthest I've had to shoot is 200 yards and the biggest deer I've seen in my life I jumped up at less than 20 yards and I had my gun jam. I took a friends .270 because of long shots and the safety was broke so I didn't carry a round in the chamber and it jammed when I tried to load it. If I would of carried my Marlin lever action like I was going to I would of had it. My grandfather hunted Colorado with a 30-30 and shot the biggest deer of the group.

well the BOSS System seems good, but it costs over $1000. Not that $930 is far away, but when you're 16 years old, your paycheck is almost minimum wage...

Check out the Benelli R1.

A gun with the BOSS system does not cost over $1,000.

My dad bought his A-Bolt USED, but in mint condition, with the BOSS system, for $750, since he talked him down from $830, and since this was at Gander Mtn, if you sign up for membership, you save 5% off of guns and ammo, and 10% off of optics.
