For hunters and precision shooters who demand both ballistic performance and refined aesthetics, the right rifle blends function with finish. The following review breaks down the features that make this model a standout for long-range hunting, field use, and collectors who appreciate fine wood and fitment.

BROWNING X-BOLT II MEDALLION

This rifle pairs a 24″ sporter-weight, blue polished threaded barrel with a drilled-and-tapped carbon steel receiver, delivering a platform built for precision and scope compatibility. The gloss AAAA white maple stock with rosewood forend and grip caps gives the rifle a showpiece quality while remaining extremely usable in the field.

Craftsmanship and Ergonomics

The gloss blued receiver features tasteful scroll engraving, matching the high-grade maple stock for a traditional look without sacrificing modern performance. The receiver is drilled and tapped to accept bases directly; combined with Browning’s X-Lock scope mounting system—four screws per base—this setup provides rock-solid scope attachment that resists creep under recoil.

Barrel, Brake, and Magazine Details

The 24″ threaded barrel accepts the included radial muzzle brake and thread protector, reducing felt recoil and improving follow-up shot control—especially valuable with high-energy cartridges. Feeding is handled through a 3+1 configuration that balances on-board capacity with a slim, reliable magazine profile.

Caliber Considerations: 7mm PRC

The 7mm PRC configuration makes this rifle a long-range hunter’s tool. Known for high ballistic coefficients and sustained downrange energy, the 7mm PRC is well-suited for mountain game and plains stalks where flat trajectories and retained energy matter. The radial muzzle brake further tames recoil, letting shooters remain on target for quick second shots.
