Congratulation on the BLR, I have the pistol grip version in 358 win and really like. I think the 308 gives you much more versatility in loads and is a great round.

Your Browning looks even better than the previous models. Now you need to plan your next hunting adventure!

Unfortunately not. Due to my current schedule and honey-do's it looks like it might be a few weeks before I get the chance.

Thanks, I think that I am going to take it out for deer this year. I am not sure if I like the rear sight yet, I may change it out to a full buckhorn. The first range session will tell the tole.

That's a great tip. Buy at least two extra magazines for your rifle. Keep one extra magazine with you and the rifle and keep one spare magazine in a place at home where you'll always have it. Of course, get Browning magazines and not some off-brand magazine.
