Overview
The Browning X-Bolt platform is engineered for consistent long-range precision and operational reliability. This Western Hunter Long Range variant integrates specific enhancements to optimize performance in demanding field conditions, making it a robust solution for discerning shooters.
Key Features
Precision Engineering
- **Action Bedding:** The action is precisely bedded at both front and rear, establishing a consistent barrel-to-stock interface. This free-float design mitigates barrel harmonics interference, optimizing accuracy potential.
- **Muzzle Crown:** A recessed muzzle crown safeguards the rifling from impact damage, preserving terminal ballistics.
- **Feather Trigger System:** The proprietary three-lever Feather Trigger system provides a crisp, predictable break, enhancing shot placement capability through a clean pull.
- **X-Lock Scope Mount:** Utilizes the X-Lock scope mounting system, which employs four screws per base, ensuring secure optic integration and exceptional zero retention under recoil and field use.
Operational Reliability
- **Safety System:** The top-tang safety integrates a bolt unlock button, allowing the chamber to be cleared while maintaining the safety engagement, enhancing user control during loading and unloading.
- **Bolt Lift:** A 60-degree bolt lift facilitates rapid cycling and minimizes interference with mounted optics, contributing to faster follow-up shots.
- **Extended Bolt Handle:** Features an extended bolt handle for positive manipulation, ensuring reliable operation even under adverse conditions or with gloved hands.
- **Detachable Magazine:** The removable box magazine facilitates rapid reloading and secure cartridge retention, critical for field efficiency.
Durable Construction
- **Receiver:** A high-strength steel receiver provides a robust and rigid foundation, critical for long-term operational integrity and consistent accuracy.
- **Barrel:** Features a 26-inch stainless steel sporter contour fluted barrel, designed to contribute to thermal stability during extended firing sequences and reduce overall weight. It is equipped with a removable muzzle brake to effectively mitigate recoil impulse. The barrel exhibits a Matte Blued finish for corrosion resistance.
- **Stock:** The Hard Core Fiber-Fusion stock is finished in Flat Dark Earth Cerakote with a distinct spider webbed pattern. This composite stock is engineered for structural rigidity and superior environmental resistance. It incorporates an adjustable comb system for optimized shooter interface and consistent sight alignment across various shooting positions.
- **Recoil Pad:** Inflex recoil pad technology is integrated to attenuate felt recoil, improving shooter comfort and enabling faster target reacquisition.
