BAR jamming @%##*&$^)(*

Browning BAR rifles sometimes have tight chambers.
My own 1969-vintage BAR in .30-06 displays that tendency, so I make sure I use small-base sizing dies when making handloads for it. If you're running factory fresh ammo, it's the luck of the draw, although they usually stay to the smaller side of SAAMI dimensions.

friend of mine owns the gun, has no internet access at this time. was recently field stripped and looked at supposedly fixed by a local smith...whe he asked the smith why the neck of the casing was always dented..was told that alot of brownings do that...70$ later and still not right...
