I need input on Browning BAR .308 synthetic version

I've got a pair of BAR safari grade II. One in 25/06 and one in 243. I always heard they could be somewhat finicky about what ammo they like but both mine shoot everything pretty well. Both are a pleasure to shoot. Extremely smooth action.
 
Mine is the d b m model. It won't shoot any pointed bullet I've tried worth a damn.it will shoot Remington 150 grain core loc into one inch groups and I'm more than pleased.before I tried the Remington I went through 5 different brands with no luck on grouping but it loves the core loc.

I'll load for it once I find what it likes. I just want to make sure up front that I buy a great rifle that's not gonna be a pain to deal with.

I was advised on another forum to be sure to get one with a steel receiver. I guess some are alloy????
 
I've always thought the walnut stock models were beautiful guns. I almost bought one but decided that one accurate shot was better than 3 not so accurate shots.

I have a Belgium made .270 from the mid 80's that's an absolute tack driver. I haven't hunted with it in years and I keep saying...next year, but I never do. 😞
 
I have a 300wsm in hells canyon. It is a shooter and pleasant to shoot. Never jams and is accurate. I may be selling on here before long. It has been a safe queen for too long. My obsession with guns is terrible and I need to thin out.
