double rifle on Browning BSS
#15063 - 22/05/04 04:51 AM

I recently purchased a Browning 20 Ga. SxS BSS shotgun. It has the single mech. trigger and is 90%. I got an extra set of barrels in 30-30. They came with another fore end manual exractor and fit the BSS tight. I have shot the gun 40 times and it works perfect. It shoots federal ammo ok but seems to like the old imperial stuff. There are no proof marks makers name or cal. stamped on the extra set of barrels. The barrels are like the Daniel Fraser with a partial rib just past the fore end and a block and ramp sight at the muzzle. Does anyone any guesses?

Sounds neat, how does it shoot? It most be a real pleasure to carry around. It is probably someone's creation. If it works, great. The 30-30 is definitly a low pressure cartridge with little head thrust.

It shoots about 3 1/2 Inch rights and lefts at 50 yards with the Federals and closer with the old Imperials. I do have some problems with the hold on the target with the iron sights as I can't wear my glasses. The sights are close as the barrels are short. The back sight blurrs with them off and the target blurrs with them on. It is great to get older.
