I have come into possession of a very nice Browning BAR in 30-06, and am contemplating using it for my moose hunt this fall.
It is one of the older Belgian-made guns, and sports a 22" barrel. Mechanically it is sound. Trigger feels adequate.
Any suggestions for factory loads out of this beast? I've been looking at various 180 grain loads from Remington, Winchester, Federal and Hornady - and wonder if anyone has suggestions. Maybe its unavoidable, but I hate thinking of buying tons of ammo trying to find a good shooting load, and then basically having 6 or 7 boxes of shells that don't give me acceptable accuracy...
