Browning redesigns the bolt with an ergonomic handle shape and pairs it with an adjustable DLX trigger, while the Vari-Tech stock offers adjustable length-of-pull, adjustable comb, and an interchangeable grip with a 1-1/4-inch Inflex recoil pad. The threaded muzzle wears a stainless steel muzzle brake to reduce recoil, with a thread protector included for M13x0.75 threading.
