Browning X-Bolt Varmint Stalker

The Browning® X-Bolt Hunter Bolt-Action Rifle provides the reliability and accuracy Browning rifles are famous for. The X-Bolt Hunter features a satin finished walnut stock that looks great and won't spook game, while the detailed checkering provides a solid non-slip grip. A low-luster, blued finish on the barrel and receiver also reduces glare. The Inflex Technology™ recoil pad reduces recoil and ensures the butt won't slip off the shooter's shoulder. Browning's Feather Trigger™ also enhances potential accuracy by providing a clean, crisp pull with no take-up and a minimal overtravel (a screw adjusts trigger from 3 to 5 lbs.). A free-floated, target-crowned barrel delivers precision accuracy. The X-Bolt also features a glass bedded, matte finished steel receiver that's drilled and tapped with a 4 screw per base design to ensure a secure and stable placement of the optic sight. 3 locking lugs provide exceptional strength and a short 60° bolt lift that cycles smooth and fast, while keeping a wide margin of space between your hand and the scope sight. A detachable rotary magazine feeds cartridges directly in-line with the bolt instead of feeding offset as with conventional magazines. The Browning X-Bolt Hunter Bolt-Action Rifle also features a top-tang safety with bolt unlock button that allows you to open the bolt for loading or inspection with the tang safety in the safe position.
