Browning BLR opinions

Post by 7075-T7 »

Anyone have anything good/bad to say about the Browning BLR? I've seen more good than bad on the net, but I wanted to consult the experts :thumbs2:

One of the few, if not the only lever rifle that is available in modern centerfire rifle calibers. (And no... the venerable .30-30 is not a modern cartridge.) I almost bought one years ago in .308 Winchester.

Wow. Went and looked at the gun options on the Browning site....

.300 Win Mag out of a 6 3/4 pound lever gun? That seems... silly, and a bit masochistic. Makes the mag capacity of 3 sound high.
