The Browning X-Bolt 2 Hunter, chambered in 7mm PRC, represents a precision-engineered bolt action rifle optimized for field performance and adaptability. This platform integrates design enhancements focused on operational reliability, shooter interface, and consistent accuracy.
Key Features
Receiver and Bolt Redesign
The X-Bolt 2 Hunter features a reconfigured steel receiver, precision-machined with an expanded bolt guidance surface area. This enhancement mitigates lateral play and promotes consistent, smoother bolt cycling under varied conditions. The redesigned bolt incorporates an ergonomic handle shape, facilitating rapid manipulation and positive tactile feedback during high-stress engagements or follow-up shots. The receiver is drilled and tapped for optic mounting.
DLX Trigger System
A critical component for precision, the adjustable, multiple-lever DLX trigger system provides a crisp, repeatable break. This user-adjustable mechanism allows for precise pull weight tuning, optimizing shot consistency and reducing shooter-induced error.
Vari-Tech Stock Integration
The rifle’s black synthetic Vari-Tech stock offers extensive user customization for optimal fit and ergonomics. It features adjustable length of pull and an adjustable comb height, allowing shooters to achieve a precise sight picture with various optic setups. The stock design includes interchangeable grip modules; a sporter-style grip is factory installed, and a vertical grip is supplied for alternative hand placement preferences. Overmolded grip surfaces ensure secure handling in diverse environmental conditions.
Barrel Configuration
Equipped with a 24-inch sporter contour barrel, the X-Bolt 2 Hunter achieves a balance between accuracy potential and field maneuverability. The barrel is threaded, facilitating the integration of muzzle devices or suppressors. A thread protector is included, safeguarding the muzzle crown when no device is attached.
Recoil Management
The integrated 1.25-inch Inflex recoil pad is engineered to mitigate felt recoil, allowing for extended shooting sessions and maintaining target acquisition efficiency, particularly with high-performance cartridges like the 7mm PRC.
