The Browning X-Bolt 2 Hunter rifle in 6.8 Western with a 24-inch barrel (brand part no. 036008299) pairs a modern, flat-shooting long-range cartridge with a non-reflective matte stainless steel receiver and barrel built for demanding field use. Browning‘s Vari-Tech stock offers an adjustable comb and length-of-pull along with interchangeable grip modules for a personalized fit, and the lower-profile bottom metal keeps the rifle’s lines clean. A 1.25-inch Inflex recoil pad softens felt recoil, and the sporter-contour barrel ships with a thread protector over the M13x0.75 threaded muzzle. A detachable 3-round magazine feeds the tang-safety action. Among modern-cartridge bolt action rifles, this X-Bolt 2 Hunter configuration favors long-range hunters who want an adjustable-fit stock paired with heavy-for-caliber bullets.
