If you like accurate rifles, be glad he won’t sell it to you.

So some may have noticed the Ruger 77/22 has a 3-9 Browning scope on it, not sure how good they are or who would have made them for Browning.
Working on getting another Browning BBR in 30/06, but price seems to be going up more than i hoped, i know a lot of years ago i bought one in (gasp) 270 Winchester for 650.00CDN and it is one accurate rifle, and beautiful too, although like some say they are heavy.

Fired a few rounds off in the work shop to try the Model 62 and it functioned great.
Going to be a fun .22.

I’ve done that when testing some reloads. Found out that shooting into a bucket of wheel weights is smarter than shooing a “plate” of lead. :-). I’m jealous of the Hornet, been thinking about getting one of them for awhile. Not a need but a want…

Tried the Winchester 250 lever action 22, functions well also. That was another auction buy.

And the Winchester 62 and the one They listed as a Ruger 77/22 in 22 long rifle, that turns out to be a 2005 77/22H in 22 Hornet, so they did not even know what they were auctioning off.

So the Browning BBR arrived along with the Rossi 62, they look great, going to be fun using them, have a Winchester 275 coming now in 22 Mag, this retirement is getting expensive. shocked
