Well my B-78 is a 30-06 and it's a tack driver. Like someone said, a 9.5 pound rifle isn't very kind to antique knees and bad backs so mine is used strictly as a range toy now. It puts 220 gr. cast bullets into nice little groups.

I like this:

"Our forefathers did not politely protest the British.They did not vote them out of office, nor did they impeach the king,march on the capitol or ask permission for their rights. ----------------They just shot them."

That's why they don't teach History these days!

Unfortunately very true. There are young adults who don't believe the Holocaust was real. Someday soon I hope the sheep wake up

Yep and the older I get, the more I appreciate it.

I’d like to have one also, congrats on yours.

Wow! That's a beauty.

Got er scoped up,

Without a doubt, those B78's are the sexiest rifles I've ever seen, especially with the octagon barrels.

First fell in love with them in the early 80's, when there was no way I could afford one.

Still can't.

The B78 looks like the real Browning designed High Hall, which is one of the nicest looking of all single shots. The 78 is undoubtedly a nice looking rifle. Classic action shape and a nicely complementary stock design makes it so. It is really too bad Browning couldn't make the rifle without saddling it with that incredibly stupid trigger system. That trigger and the overly complex firing system produced a rifle where in beauty was truly only skin deep. Still, it's a pretty rifle, for sure. GD

ya done good Judman, ya done good

Thanks Sam 👍

Was a little Leary after reading about the triggers in em. I either lucked out and got a goodun or it’s already been reworked. Thinkin 55’s at 4100 FPS for a dedicated speed goat rifle. 😎

She’s a beaut!
Miroku puts out great rifles and shotguns, no doubt about it.

I still have to get my little low wall down to Oregon for a rebore to 250 Savage. They are just super cool little rifles.

That would be a dandy MM.

Man, now that would be a screamer!

The Browning B78 was the predecessor to the Browning 1885. Both are very nice rifles. Winchester also offered a modern 1885, but I never found the fit and finish to be on par with the Brownings. And yes, they shoot VERY well.
