I don't own a Browning, but a friend has an A Bolt in 7-08 and that is ONE NICE RIFLE! I have a Savage and two Remingtons, a M7 in .308 and an older M722 short action in .257 Roberts. I'm sorry Savage guys, but there is no way I'm going to pick Savage over the Remington. The bolts on the Remmies feel like they're gliding on ball bearings. The Savage, even after some years of use, feels like it's gliding on sand paper. The Remingtons are more accurate, nicer finished, better looking, have better triggers, and are less ammo picky to boot. Sure, the Savage can shoot with its best ammo and it's a great bang for the buck, but head to head with Remington, sorry Charlie, no dice here. I don't really care for the Remington's extractor design, about my only complaint, but I've never had either rifle fail to extract.
