Re: **OT** EBRs

If a good .308 would tickle you, get ready to laugh your *** off. This is the most accurate rifle that I have ever owned. The review was not about the rifle, but in testing the BORS, the rifle proved to be extremely accurate. 200 yard group. Yes, 200. http://www.gunblast.com/images/Barrett-BORS/DSC0...
