[QUOTE="azsugarbear, post: 416431, member: 4809"] I've owned several A-Bolts and loved 'em all. Only had one A-Bolt with the BOSS and it was a constant problem. For some reason, the barrel would never stay "tuned". The locknut on the BOSS was solid, but my groups would widen over the period of 30-50 shots. I would adjust/"retune" the BOSS and the groups would tighten back up. I spoke with several other A-Bolt/BOSS owners about this problem and the results were mixed. Some experienced a degradation in accuracy corrected by subtle changes to the BOSS from time to time, while others found no problems. Once tuned to a load - it stayed accurate. Perhaps Browning dropped it from their X-Bolt because of mixed reviews. As a company, they are pretty good at marketing and sticking with what works - or what people want. [/QUOTE]
