Browning Lever Action Clip
I'm hoping someone can help me locate a clip for a an older Browning lever action rifle. A friend of mine asked me to work up a load for his .243 lever action - the good news is I fired several sub 1/2" groups at 100, the bad is that the clip is missing.
Thanks for your help.

mikethebearGo to the Browning web site, and check out the place in Canada that has obsolete parts. You can order one there. I got a new one earlier this year. If you don't win the auction.

Pa.Frank The really bad news is a replacement clip is $65 for these
. If your lucky, you'll be able to find a used one somewhereI have one of the pre-81 BLR's (with an extra clip

) in .308 and it never shot all that well. Good enough for hunting, but 2 1/2" groups are about the best I got from it.
