Browning Short Track Rifle, .300 WSM, 23 Inch Barrel, 8 1/2 lbs.

Description:
Introduced in 1967, the gas-operated Browning BAR has proven to be a reliable and very successful semi-automatic sporting rifle. But, with development of the Winchester Short Magnum family of cartridges, Browning has made some radical aesthetic and ergonomic changes to the venerable BAR. The standard Safari and Lightweight Stalker BARs are still offered, but the new LongTrac and ShortTrac bring modern European styling to the design. The ShortTrac (designed for short-action length cartridges) is offered in .243 Win., .308 Win., .270 WSM, 7 mm WSM and .300 WSM. The European-style walnut fore-end and contoured buttstock differentiate the ShortTrac from more traditional American-style BARs. There are pronounced ascending thumb grooves on either side of the fore-end, and the belly is checkered in an angular pattern. A sling swivel stud protrudes from the front of the fore-end. The buttstock has a full pistol grip, again with fine checkering, and seemingly arbitrary angular lines on its surface. A user-adjustable shim system (as is often found on shotguns) allows the shooter to tailor the gun to his or her dimensions. The 1-inch soft rubber recoil pad is radiused at its top to aid in rapid mounting and is contoured to the lines of the butt. All ShortTrac barrels are produced by Fabrique Nationale in Belgium (Browning's parent company) and are of hammer-forged, blued steel with a high polish. This is in contrast to the attractive matte-anodized finish of the rifle's receiver. .300 WSM
