Browning X-Bolt – Accurate-Engineered for Serious Shooters and Hunters

The Browning X-Bolt bolt-action rifle is the perfect pick among hunting rifles today. Designed for maximum accuracy, toughness, and ergonomic comfort, the X-Bolt places Browning’s legendary craftsmanship in balance with innovative technology to offer long-range shooters and hunters a serious edge.

From feather-light trigger system to free-floating barrel and X-Lock scope mounting system, every detail of the X-Bolt is crafted for real-world performance. Available in a wide range of calibers and configurations—the classic Hunter model to the high-tech Hell’s Canyon Speed and Max Long Range, this rifle is mission-specific to your mission, whether that’s taking a whitetail at 150 yards or ringing steel at 1,000.

The X-Bolt’s adjustable Feather Trigger gives a crisp, clean break with no take-up and very little overtravel. Factory-cranked around 3.5 lbs, it can be adjusted to your shooting style—a must-have for repeatable, accurate shots.

Free-Floated Barrel & Glass Bedded Action

The barrel is glass bedded and free-floated at the action rear and front to offer maximum consistency and accuracy. Cold hammer-forged barrels are also used by Browning, which are renowned for tighter tolerances and strength.

One of the X-Bolt’s greatest advantages is the X-Lock system, which uses four screws per base (instead of two) to lock the scope firmly in place. This produces a more rigid platform, which improves optic alignment and maintains zero even under heavy recoil.

The short 60-degree bolt throw is faster with better scope clearance than traditional 90-degree lifts. This provides for faster cycling speed and less movement out of your shooting position.

Unlike single-stack or staggered box magazines, the X-Bolt rotary magazine feeds rounds directly into the chamber for greater reliability and smoother feeding. The flush-mount magazine is easy to load and unload.

X-Bolt model line has numerous stock materials and finishes available to accommodate different hunting situations and shooter tastes:

• X-Bolt Hunter – Classic walnut stock with matte blued barrel

• X-Bolt Speed – Cerakote with OVIX camo synthetic stock

• X-Bolt Hell’s Canyon Max LR – High-long-range accuracy with adjustable comb

• X-Bolt Composite Stalker – Lightweight synthetic all-weather rifle

The X-Bolt has built a reputation among hunters and precision shooters for its dead-on accuracy, exceptional reliability, and smooth action. Whether you’re tracking elk through alpine terrain or taking long shots across open plains, the rifle performs consistently in real-world conditions.

The ergonomic stock shapes—which include textured gripping surfaces and raised combs—help with control and comfort. Furthermore, the Inflex recoil pad system helps to reduce felt recoil, especially useful in magnums like .300 Win Mag or 7mm Rem Mag.
