Precision, durability and recoil management are the pillars of a rifle built for demanding field work and tactical accuracy. This rifle combines modern materials, refinements in action geometry, and practical accessories to deliver a ready-to-shoot platform for hunters and precision shooters alike.

BROWNING X-BOLT PRO is a full-size .308 Win bolt-action rifle chambered 4+1 with a 22″ matte blued, fluted Sporter SR barrel and a blued, drilled & tapped/X-Lock mount steel receiver. The rifle pairs a true carbon fiber stock filled with noise-dampening foam and a natural finish with performance upgrades like a spiral fluted bolt, M13x0.75 muzzle threading, and a three-lever Feather trigger.

Design and Key Features

The X-Bolt Pro emphasizes repeatable accuracy and shooter comfort. The non-reflective matte blued, fluted Sporter contour barrel reduces weight and aids cooling, while the spiral fluted bolt reduces reciprocating mass and adds crisp extraction. The M13x0.75 muzzle threading allows fitted accessories; this model ships with a Sporter Recoil Hawg muzzle brake and thread protector to help tame .308 recoil and speed follow-up shots.

Stock, Recoil and Trigger

At the rear, the true carbon fiber stock—layered with noise-dampening foam—minimizes vibration and keeps handling quiet in the field. The Inflex recoil pad helps manage recoil energy during long sessions. A three-lever Feather trigger delivers a clean, adjustable break that suits both hunting shots and precision work. Note: some configurations reference a black fixed synthetic stock; this platform is offered in variations, but this specific Pro model emphasizes the carbon fiber option for weight reduction and vibration control.

Caliber and Practical Applications

.308 Winchester remains a versatile choice for big game and precision shooting. It offers wide ammo availability, predictable ballistics, and manageable recoil—making it appropriate for medium to large game and long-range precision at typical hunting distances. The X-Lock scope mount and blued, drilled & tapped receiver simplify optic mounting and ensure a stable sighting solution for consistent impacts.

Price for this configuration is $1,689.99, reflecting the carbon fiber components, premium barrel work, and included muzzle brake. View product details and pricing
