Just purchased a Browning A-Bolt What do I need to know???

Was there an issue with A bolt magnums and guys using lead sleds and cracks in the stocks?

I have a stainless A-Bolt in 375 H&H. It is very accurate and utterly reliable.

Got an A Bolt II in the pussy cat caliber of 22 Hornet. Superbly accurate with, Hornady or Remington Accutip ammunition.
Smooth and fast bolt operation. One can forgive the magazine thing.

And a big yes to the timney trigger spring modification.
