[QUOTE="azsugarbear, post: 454791, member: 4809"] I have owned two Browning A-Bolts. One with the BOSS and another without. Both were great rifles that did nearly everything I asked of them. Both shot under MOA out of the box with no tinkering - except for bedding the action. Their standard rifles tend to be some of the lightest offerings out there. Given the "pencil barrel" that most of them come with, their accuracy is really quite good. For me, their design and ergonomics fit me well as a shooter. I still have have an A-Bolt Stalker that is my carry gun when going into steep terrain where shots are expected to be under 400 yds. Never had to send one back. But I did have a bad result with a Winchester rifle. (No slam here, just a bad barrel that could happen with any make). My point in bringing this up, is that both Wichester & Browning are owned by FN. Their customer service was top notch. No argument from them. They took everything I said as fact and worked hard with me to make things right - even though my Winchester rifle was made well before FN bought the Winchester name. I think that says volumes about them. Sometimes, it is good to remember that when you buy a rifle, you are buying the company as well. Two thumbs up for Browning. [/QUOTE]
