Description
Product Overview
The Browning BLR '81 Lightweight combines quick lever-action handling with the strength and accuracy of a modern rotating-bolt design. Its aircraft-grade aluminum receiver and rack-and-pinion lever operate a multi-lug breech bolt, providing secure locking for the .308 Winchester cartridge. The 20-inch button-rifled chromoly steel barrel is heat treated, precision checked, and finished with a crowned muzzle for dependable field performance. A flush-mounted detachable box magazine holds four rounds, with one additional round in the chamber. The checkered American walnut stock, deluxe recoil pad, adjustable low-profile rear sight, and gold bead front sight create a practical configuration for hunting and general field use. The receiver is drilled and tapped for scope mounts, allowing the rifle to be configured with an appropriate optic.

This is a great rifle....
This is a great rifle. The fit and finish is perfect though that's to be expected from Browning. I took it to the range and fired 3 boxes (60 rounds) of Remington Core-Lokt 150 grain at 100 yards with 2-3 moa accuracy open sights fired from the kneeling and standing position. Nice rifle with no function issues.
