Always love to see a fine stable of rifles displayed. A friend asked Noah today if he knew how many rifles were in his Pa's safe. He responded, "Yeah, I know, but I'm sworn to secrecy." Good boy, especially since he was speaking in front of my wife. :grin:

I think I see 2 browning's in that line up. One looks like a Abolt Stainless stalker. How do your brownings shoot for you?
Where do they rank in your Favorites list?
Just wondering as I own one also.

...the scope is a VX-3 6.5X20 VX-3, 30mm tube, Varmint Hunter reticle, side focus AO, w/ a sunshield...
...I've had very good luck w/ the Brownings, all shoot sub-MOA, nice triggers adj. down to 2.5#, no creep, no take up, so I don't worry too much about having to replace barrels, etc. They're not like some other, eh (green), rifles where you buy a rifle, throw away the stock, the trigger, the barrel, spend the price of the rifle on having the action trued, spend the price again to have it re-barreled, & once again on a stock & trigger to get a rifle that shoots about as good as the Brownings...

I don't hear much good stuff about the Browning rifles compared to some others. But, I've had mine since '97 in .300 WM and it shoots sub moa to sub 1/2" with the right loads. Been in torrential downpours and deep snow. Been tossed around in a pickup and I caught a horse scratching himself with my rifle in a scabbard.
Performed flawlessly all these years and I've not altered one thing about this rifle.
I'm considering an X Bolt, just because I don't Have one.
