Browning A-bolt Rifles

Dusted off my son's Browning A-bolt 30.06 with Leupold 3X9, cleaned bore, bought some Remington factory 150 Core Lokt bullets, and went to range.

Rifle has a low round count, and I was amazed that rifle can shoot from just over 1/2" to just under 3/4" groups @ 100 yards with the low magnification of scope, and an old guy driving.

Smoothness of action and trigger, shorter bolt throw, fast handling lighter weight, coupled with also being aesthetically pleasing, suits me.

My gunsmith stated that a factory Browning A-bolt seldom needs much when truing a Browning A-bolt.

What have others experienced when attempting to true or tune a Browning A-bolt action?

From others experience, is son's Browning A-bolt performance the exception or more a common rule?

Thanks.

I've had great luck with Browning A-Bolt rifles. I have one in .308 Win. and another in .300 Win. Mag. and both will consistently shoot groups under MOA with hunting bullets. I have a webpage (with instructions) for bedding the Browning A-Bolt for best performance. The factory trigger is very easy to improve considerably (no need to replace it). If you want a great shooting, affordable hunting rifle that requires very little custom work - these rifles are a real deal.
