Description

The original X-Bolt earned its keep in deer camps for years, and the X-Bolt 2 Hunter Composite takes that proven platform and gives it a genuine fit upgrade. The headline here is the Vari-Tech composite stock. You get an adjustable comb to line your eye up with your scope, adjustable length of pull with spacers, and swappable grip modules. A sporter grip comes installed with a vertical grip in the box, so you can set it up how you like to shoot. Rubber overmolded grip panels keep things planted when your hands are cold or wet, which is exactly when a slick stock lets you down.

Why the X-Bolt 2 Runs So Smooth

Browning reworked the receiver on the second generation with more bolt guidance surface, and you can feel it. The spiral-fluted bolt cycles fast with a short 60 degree lift that clears bigger scope bells, and the reshaped bolt knob is easy to run from the shoulder. The DLX trigger is a three-lever design that breaks clean with no creep or overtravel, set at 3.5 pounds from the factory and adjustable down to 3. The action is bedded and the 22-inch sporter contour barrel is free-floated, which is a big part of why these rifles group the way they do.

A .308 Built to Carry

At roughly 6.8 pounds unloaded, this is a rifle you can pack up a ridge without regretting it. The .308 Win chambering keeps ammo cheap and available, recoil manageable, and performance more than adequate for whitetail, hogs, and black bear. The muzzle is threaded M13x0.75 and ships with a radial brake installed plus a thread protector, and the Inflex recoil pad soaks up what the brake does not.

Setting Up Your Hunter Composite

There are no iron sights, so plan on glass. The receiver is drilled and tapped for Browning's X-Lock mounting system, which uses four screws per base for a rock-solid hold. Feeding comes from a detachable 4-round rotary magazine, and the top-tang safety with bolt unlock button makes checking the chamber simple. Matte blued metal and a black composite stock keep glare down and maintenance easy.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

No, it ships without sights or optics. The receiver is drilled and tapped for Browning's X-Lock mounting system, which secures each base with four screws instead of the usual two. Plan on picking up X-Lock bases or an X-Lock rail along with rings for your scope.

Can I run a suppressor on this rifle?

The muzzle is threaded M13x0.75, which is Browning's metric thread rather than the more common 5/8×24. You can remove the included radial brake and use a thread adapter to mount most .30 caliber suppressors, or use direct-thread mounts made for M13x0.75. The included thread protector covers the threads when you're running the barrel bare.

What makes the X-Bolt 2 different from the original X-Bolt?

The biggest changes are the Vari-Tech stock and the reworked action. The stock adds adjustable comb height, adjustable length of pull, and interchangeable grip modules so you can tailor the fit. The receiver gained extra bolt guidance surface for smoother cycling, the bolt got spiral fluting and a new knob, and the DLX trigger replaced the older Feather Trigger.

Is the trigger on the X-Bolt 2 Hunter Composite adjustable?

Yes. The DLX trigger is a three-lever design that comes set at 3.5 pounds from the factory and can be adjusted down to 3 pounds. It breaks with no creep, take-up, or overtravel, and it's one of the standout features on this rifle straight out of the box.
