Browning BOSS

25-06 Classic
Hey y'all:
Anyone know what is involved in adding BOSS to a new A-bolt not currently fitted with it? It is a 30-06 White gold medallion. Thanks for any info!

    Does the BOSS system affect the velocity of the bullet. The barrel length on a Browning A-bolt 7mm WSM is 23" on the BOSS model it is also 23" including the BOSS, so it looks to me like it has about 21" of barrel and 2" of boss which lets the gas escape out the side and around the bullet. This gun also has the conventional recoil end I can put on, would this give me a little more velocity over the ported end, or do they all preform the same.

    Browning claims the BOSS dosen't affect velocity but I want proof, I think they are just trying to sell their product.

    The only way to tell for sure is with a cronograph . I would be surprised if any lose. The BOSS was thought up to tune a rifle with one load and needs to be changed for any change in ammo type or brand .It has to do with vibration and "BARREL TIME"

    Perry has this one down. The only thing that will change much when you put the solid end on is the muzzle climb a little, and the noise
    A LOT. Muzzle breaks work but they are LOUD. As Perry so well put, it will has to do with harmonics and barrel time. You truly can tune the barrel for the most accuracy with a given cartridge instead of having to tune the cartridge (powder, bullet, ect)to the barrel.
