I am looking at the Browning BAR line, and having trouble finding information on the models. My main interest is .308 win, so I believe the ShortTrac is the desired family. But I am interested in knowing the difference between the LongTrac and ShortTrac. Can anyone describe the differences or post a link? I cannot find a description on the internet.

Also, what is a Boss?

Any comments on these rifles in any variant such as Safari, ShortTrac, Boss, etc.

I think I am narrowing down to .308, wood stock, 22-24 inch barrel or longer. I am interested in the BAR as this type has less recoil.

Thanks for your input.
