Description

Browning took a rifle that already had a loyal following and gave it a real second-generation overhaul. The X-Bolt 2 Hunter Composite in 7mm Remington Magnum runs a 26 inch sporter contour barrel with a 1:9.5 twist, which gives the big 7mm case room to build velocity and stabilizes the heavier, high-BC bullets that make this cartridge such a favorite for elk, mule deer, and open-country hunts. The action is bedded, the barrel is free floated, and the muzzle comes threaded M13x0.75 with a radial brake installed and a thread protector in the box for when you want a cleaner profile.

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

Most hunting rifles make you adapt to them. This one adjusts to you. The Vari-Tech composite stock lets you raise or lower the comb to line your eye up behind the scope, tune length of pull with internal spacers that stay solid and rattle-free, and even swap grip modules between a traditional sporter angle and a more vertical grip. Rubber overmolded panels keep your hands planted when the weather turns ugly, and the 1-1/4 inch Inflex recoil pad takes real bite out of magnum recoil, which matters when you're putting in practice sessions with 7mm Rem Mag.

A Smoother Action and a Trigger Worth Talking About

The redesigned X-Bolt 2 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 low-mounted scopes. The DLX trigger is a three-lever design with essentially no creep, take-up, or overtravel, set from the factory around 3.5 pounds and user adjustable. Up top, the receiver is drilled and tapped for Browning's X-Lock scope mounting system, which uses four screws per base for a rock-solid hold.

Feeding and Handling in the Field

A detachable rotary magazine feeds the belted magnum reliably for a 3+1 total capacity, and the top-tang safety with bolt unlock button keeps controls right under your thumb. At 53.8 inches with the brake installed, it balances well for a magnum and carries like a rifle built for long days in the mountains.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

No, this rifle ships without sights or optics. The receiver is drilled and tapped for Browning's X-Lock scope mounting system, which secures each base with four screws instead of the usual two. Plan on adding bases, rings, and a quality scope before heading to the range.

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

It adjusts three ways. Comb height can be raised or lowered to align your eye with the scope, length of pull is changed with internal spacers for a solid fit, and the grip module swaps between the installed sporter grip and an included vertical grip. It's one of the most adaptable factory stocks in this class of hunting rifle.

How bad is the recoil with 7mm Rem Mag in this rifle?

The 7mm Rem Mag has some push, but this setup manages it well. The included radial muzzle brake takes a noticeable edge off, and the thick 1-1/4 inch Inflex recoil pad soaks up what's left. Most folks find it very manageable for practice sessions, and you can remove the brake and use the thread protector if you prefer hunting without it.

Can the trigger on the X-Bolt 2 Hunter Composite be adjusted?

Yes. The DLX trigger is a three-lever design that comes from the factory set around 3.5 pounds and is user adjustable within a safe range. It breaks clean with no creep, no take-up, and no overtravel, so most hunters are happy running it right out of the box.
