Never owned an older BAR. I always thought, in the right chambering for hunting in dark timber, it would be a good choice.
I did buy a used MK3 in 300 WSM. I actually love the lightweight rifle more than I thought I ever would.
Shockingly, it is damn accurate with Federal 190 grain box ammo. I haven’t killed anything with it though. Kinda telling, I hate hunting dark timber.
