Description

Browning took a rifle that already had a loyal following and made it fit the shooter better. The X-Bolt 2 Hunter Composite in .300 Winchester Magnum runs a 26-inch sporter contour barrel with a matte blued finish, free floated over a bedded action for the kind of repeatable accuracy you want when a bull elk steps out at 400 yards. The muzzle is threaded M13x0.75 and ships with a radial brake installed plus a thread protector, which matters in a magnum chambering. Between the brake and the thick 1.25-inch Inflex recoil pad, this rifle takes a lot of the sting out of .300 Win Mag.

The Vari-Tech Stock Sets This X-Bolt 2 Apart

The headline feature here is the Vari-Tech composite stock. Comb height adjusts so your eye lines up behind the scope naturally, length of pull changes with internal spacers that stay solid with no rattle, and you can even swap between the installed sporter grip and the included vertical grip module depending on how you shoot. Rubber overmolded grip panels keep things secure when your hands are cold, wet, or both. Getting a proper fit is one of the most overlooked pieces of field accuracy, and this stock handles it without a trip to a gunsmith.

A Smoother, Faster X-Bolt 2 Action

The second generation receiver adds bolt guidance surface for noticeably smoother cycling, and the spiral-fluted bolt with its reshaped handle and knob runs fast with a short 60-degree lift that clears big scope bells. The DLX trigger is a three-lever design that breaks clean with no creep or overtravel, preset at 3.5 pounds and user adjustable down to 3. A top-tang safety, bolt unlock button, and detachable rotary magazine keep the controls simple and familiar.

Built for Real Hunts

At around 7 pounds bare, this is a rifle you can carry up a mountain and still shoot well when you get there. It uses Browning's X-Lock scope mount system with four screws per base, so your optic stays put through recoil and rough handling. For elk, moose, mule deer, or long open-country work, this one earns its spot in the truck.

Frequently Asked Questions

How adjustable is the Vari-Tech stock on the X-Bolt 2 Hunter Composite?

It adjusts three ways: comb height for eye-to-scope alignment, length of pull via internal spacers, and grip angle by swapping between the installed sporter grip and the included vertical grip module. All of it is designed to be done at home with basic tools. Once set, everything locks in solid with no rattle.

Does this rifle come with a muzzle brake?

Yes, a radial muzzle brake comes installed on the M13x0.75 threaded muzzle, and a thread protector cap is included if you'd rather run the barrel clean. Browning also offers the Recoil Hawg Sporter brake separately if you want even more recoil reduction. Combined with the 1.25-inch Inflex recoil pad, the .300 Win Mag is a lot more pleasant to shoot than you might expect.

Does the X-Bolt 2 Hunter Composite come with sights or scope mounts?

No iron sights or rings are included. The receiver is set up for Browning's X-Lock scope mounting system, which uses four screws per base instead of the usual two for a very secure hold. You'll want to pick up X-Lock bases and rings sized for your scope tube.

Is the .300 Win Mag version a good elk rifle?

It's one of the classic pairings for a reason. The .300 Win Mag has the energy and flat trajectory for elk, moose, and big mule deer at extended distances, and the 26-inch barrel helps the cartridge reach its full velocity potential. At roughly 7 pounds before optics, it's still light enough to pack into steep country.
