Since I haven't had any luck in locating one of the new Win. M-71's, I've been looking at the Browning BLR as an alternative. I'm really interested in the pistol-gripped, Take Down models (358 Win and 30-06).

Couple of questions:

- Can anyone comment on the accuracy and repeatability of these rifles?

- For those who own (or have owned) one, did you scope yours? If so, where did you mount the scope - receiver or barrel?

Any insights welcome.


I'm becoming more tolerant of intolerant people.
