[QUOTE="winmag, post: 452593, member: 22166"] My dad has a 338 win mag in a BAR Safari. With cheapo 225gr corelokts 3 bullets touch more often than not at 100. How, I have no idea. The triggers are HORRIBLE. But he tweaks the BOSS on er and brings em in tight. My only other beef with them is strictly from a handloaders perspective. Typicaly autos are more finnicky, Short mag length, light camming power, some folks wont run balistic tips thru em either. On the good side, they are "The Champaign Auto" vs the "BEER CAN" that Rem puts out. The BAR cycles smooth, recoil is very light, and the ones I have shot have impressed me enough in the accuracy dept., that if I were to buy a semi auto the BAR would be it. In short, my opinion is stick with a bolt for most "L/R" work. But if your sold on an autoloader, the BAR seems to be a very good choice for an allround hunting rifle. Best of luck with your choice.
