Any of you guys running one of these? I have been kicking around the idea of adding a heavy barrel .308 bolt to my collection. The rifle would see a lot of informal bench time primarily, but I can also see the possibility of using it as a bean field deer rifle on occasion. I own and prefer heavy barreled rifles generally where there isn't a lot of walking or rough terrain involved. This rifle weighs only 8 pounds with a 24 inch tube, so "medium heavy" seems like a better description and a good balance of a heavier tube without too much excess weight.
Above all else, I want rifles that are MOA accurate and preferably better with good hand loads that I can and would want to develop for it. And I want a good clean trigger. But I personally have zero experience with Browning rifles. I own older Remington 700s and a Savage accutrigger rifle. But I've long wondered if Browning is worth a look? I also want to keep my purchase price south of $1000 minus optics. What say you guys? Thanks!
