[QUOTE="TheDeicide, post: 2006992, member: 40022"] I have yet to own a Browning that wasn't a shooter with handloads. I have an x-bolt 30-06 that shoots 1/2 moa that I paid around $650 for new. I also have a Hell's Canyon in 28 Nosler that shoots closer to 1/4 MOA with handloads that I paid about $1100 for. I love that the latter of the two came with Cerakote and a brake. A word of caution with Browning rifles is that it's hard to find a smith to do much with them other than general stuff. I have not yet found one who will do much more than swap a barrel. Truing up an action and barrel to customize is something I've yet to find. If you plan to do anything other than shoot stock, I suggest you look at Savage, Sako, Tikka, Remington. Of those 4, I only have experience with Savage. The 3 I own all shoot very well with handloads. I have very limited or no experience with factory ammo in the last 15 years. [/QUOTE]
