I would contact Browning directly and see if they have any in stock. I would also look at Boyd's rifle stocks and see if they have any reproductions that would fit your Browning.
If you have a Browning safari bolt action rifle,then the year would be 1969.It should also be marked FN.
Blue Book of Gun Values is a good place to start.
Your browning safari bolt action rifle was one of the early made ones having been made in 1960-1961.If your rifle had a L71or L75 then it would have been made in 1971,1975.
Rifles are not guages. is this and auto 5 shotgun?
I was with my father when he purchased his FN Browning 270....it has the SN L3XX....so I would say yours is somewhere in 1959 to 1960 or 61.
That all depends on the model of Belgium made rifle you have.Browning made the safari model bolt action rifle,and also made the BAR(semi-auto)rifle in 30-06 Cartridge.It will also depend on the overall condition of your rifle.If you would supply the serial number and make,along with the condition of your rifle.I could then assign a value to it.
A browning BL-22 grade I in 60% condition would be worth 150 dollars,A grade II would be valued at 160 dollars.
The 308 Norma Mag is beyond a hunting rifle. It is more of an AMW. (Anti-Material-Weapon) or a very long range sniper rifle. If the rifle is in good shape and still has the standard wood stock and medium barrel, I would say it is worth $1,000.00 American dollars.
What type of rifle are we talking here?I would also need to know if the rifle is a muzzleloader,lever action etc.Is there a model number on the rifle?Is the caliber known?Please fill in the blanks and then we can get you some answers.
I would contact browning arms at there web site.they have a place to date your browning firearm.
A new bolt would have to be fitted to the action to get the proper head space. You are best off if you can ship it to Browning and have them do it. If that's not possible, find a good gunsmith to do the job right.
