I recently got a Browning Bar Mark III DBM semi-auto rifle in .308 with wood stock and it's awesome. It looks more like a traditional hunting rifle with the wood furniture, but functions like a light-weight but very accurate AR-10.
Never jammed on me so far despite putting hundreds of rounds of cheap bulk ammo through it, very accurate to hit steel with out to 500 yards, recoil is well absorbed by the action and rubber butt pad, its my current favorite big game hunting rifle/range toy.
To give you an idea of well this rifle shoots, I was at the range just yesterday with it and a friend of mine who is fairly inexperienced with rifles was able to hit all three swinging targets at the 200 yard line at our local range with it, three shots, three hits, the smallest target was only about 2" across, that's at 200 yards with a semi-auto rifle and cheap bulk ammo (Wyoming Cartridge 147 grain FMJ you can buy online in bulk for about 77 cents per shot).
I plan to use it for my American Pronghorn hunt this fall.
Browning also makes really great o/u shotguns, especially the Citori line.
Plus, as an added bonus, the Browning BAR DBM is featured as the "boxcar" rifle in the online hunting game called "Hunting Battle" and yes, I am dorky enough to think its cool to have the real world version of my favorite video game rifle.
