Browning T-Bolt

Post by Kujones »

Does anyone shoot the Browning T-Bolt? It appears to be conducive to Silhouette shooting but it costs around $800. At that point it's almost worth going to an Anschutz.

No one that I've seen shoots a T-bolt for silhouette. My buddy has one but he doesn't use it for silhouette. It's pretty nice but the trigger sucks. I'd get a CZ if I were you. I see you asked about Savage, I have a savage 22lr and its pretty nice. Plenty accurate for silhouette. Accutrigger is nice.

Had one a few years ago. Gorgeous rifle, suck trigger, it's plastic and non-adjustable (assuming you are talking about the modern and not the vintage T bolts).

Sold it before I had a chance to scratch it and reduce it's value....

The original T-Bolts are wonderful, the new ones look and feel lame as compared to them.

I've got an old one and a new one. Both left handed. Shot them both in matches. The old one has nice build quality but the cheekpiece is made for iron sights. No cheekweld. The new one is a nice rifle like posted above but it is totally ruined by a plastic trigger group. Inexcusable. It could use a little more drop at the toe, and I worked on the trigger to get it to 2lbs. A used 1416 is a better gun.
