Precision in a bolt-action rifle starts with design choices that stabilize the action, protect the crown and deliver a repeatable trigger pull. For hunters and long-range shooters who demand consistency from the field to the range, an attention to bedding, recoil management and scope interface separates good rifles from great ones.

BROWNING X-BOLT is built on decades of Browning engineering and adds targeted upgrades to elevate accuracy and handling. Shop this product

Design features that drive accuracy

The X-Bolt frees the barrel by bedding the front and rear of the action, which maintains consistent barrel-to-stock spacing and reduces point-of-impact shift as the rifle heats or the stock encounters moisture. A recessed muzzle crown protects rifling from contact damage, preserving accuracy through hard use. The Stalker Long Range configuration includes a heavy sporter contour barrel and a removable muzzle brake for reduced felt recoil and quicker follow-up shots at distance.

Trigger, bolt and safety system

Expect a crisp pull from the three-lever Feather Trigger for predictable shot release. The 60-degree bolt lift provides fast cycling and greater clearance for optics, while the bolt unlock button paired with the toptang safety adds an extra measure of control during chamber checks and unloading—useful both on the range and in the field.

Ergonomics and mounting

The XLock scope mount system offers a solid, repeatable interface for optics, minimizing cant and creep under recoil. The synthetic stock with adjustable comb lets shooters dial in cheek weld for a consistent sight picture, and the Inflex recoil pad reduces rearward energy without adding bulk—important for staying on target during extended sessions.

Price for this configuration is listed at $975.99, positioning the rifle competitively for shooters who want factory-level long-range features without aftermarket modification. View product details and pricing
