Browning 223 X-Bolt Hunter 5rnd Mag

Description

Nothing works harder than a hunter.

When the need calls for a hard-working, rugged and accurate high-powered rifle, the Browning X-Bolt Hunter is the only choice.

Its low-luster finish on the solid steel receiver, barrel and Walnut prevents glare and reflection. It has the complete X-Bolt package: crisp Feather Trigger with no take-up or creep, preferred by experienced hunters, a center-fed Rotary magazine, X-Lock System and a soft Inflex recoil pad — every feature combines to make this X-Bolt rifle ideal for hunting deer and elk to varmints.

 

A step above in good looks. A satin gloss finish provides protection and enhances the natural beauty of the walnut. The high-grade Walnut stock with detailed checkering provides classic good looks.

 

 

– Bolt unlock button –

It works in conjunction with the top-tang safety to provide an added measure of safety during checking and unloading of the chamber. Conveniently located on top of the bolt lever, the bolt unlock button allows the bolt to be unlocked and opened with the safety in the on safe position. The safety blocks the trigger sear and features a firing pin block for added safety.

 

 

 

This feature is likely one of the most understated and underappreciated of Browning features until you actually use it. Then it becomes an integral part of the use and operation of your rifle.

• The bolt unlock button works in conjunction with the top-tang safety to provide an extra margin of safety when checking and unloading the chamber.
• Located on top of the bolt handle, the bolt unlock button allows the bolt to be unlocked and opened with the tang safety in the on safe position.
• The convenient tang safety blocks the trigger sear and features a firing pin block for added security.

– Short 60° bolt lift –

A 60º bolt is something you want. Browning X-Bolt, A-Bolt and AB3 rifles have a short 60° bolt lift. Many competitors’ rifles incorporate a 90° bolt lift that is not only slower and cumbersome but places the bolt near or on the rifle’s scope, making the bolt more difficult to operate. The 60° bolt lift has been a hallmark of Browning bolt action rifles for over three decades.

 

 

 

X-Bolt Magazines are constructed from a durable lightweight polymer, the magazine is designed to feed cartridges directly in-line with the bolt, instead of offset as with traditional leaf-spring magazines, for a straight shot right into the chamber. An ergonomic magazine-mounted release lets the magazine rotate directly downward and into your hand. The magazine sits flush with the bottom of the rifle for a sleeker appearance. Additional magazines can be kept loaded and carried in your pocket or pack for easy access.

 

– Three-lever Feather Trigger –

For precise shooting in the field or off the bench, there’s absolutely no substitute for a good, predictable trigger. X-Bolt rifles feature the three-lever Feather Trigger that provides a clean, crisp pull with no take-up or creep and minimal overtravel. The trigger is screw adjustable from 3 to 5 lb. and factory pre-set at approximately 3 1/2-4 lb. An alloy trigger housing contains hard chromed steel components that are highly polished on all critical contact surfaces. Precise engagement angles mean the X-Bolt Feather Trigger feels light and right and stays that way through many thousands of rounds.

 

 

Unlike competitors’ triggers with secondary finger piece levers, the Feather Trigger is designed right, from the very start.

Without a great trigger, a rifle’s accuracy is no more than luck. Their crisp and smooth three-lever Feather Trigger gives Browning X-Bolt rifles custom trigger performance straight from the box.

 

 

Securely mounted optics are essential to the accuracy and precision of any rifle. To ensure the new X-Bolt rifle has the most stable mount possible, it features the X-Lock scope mounting system. The X-Lock system uses four screws per base, replacing the traditional two-screw system. The benefits are obvious, with the scope bases being secured at all four corners rather than only held at the center of the base. This allows for more accurate placement of the bases on the receiver.

 

 

This revolutionary X-Lock system holds the base tighter to the rifle than ever before.

 

X-Bolt Hunter Features

• Non-reflective matte blued receiver finish

• Sporter contour barrel for the ideal blend of accuracy and weight savings

• Satin finish checkered walnut stock

• Inflex recoil pad

 

The Inflex Technology recoil pad is the most comfortable, effective pad available. That’s because Inflex Technology is more than a mass of recoil absorbing material, the innovation is engineered into the pad. Underneath the material, an internal skeleton has been designed using the concept of directional deflection. When a Browning with the Inflex recoil pad is fired, the pad collapses, but instead of simply moving to the rear, directional ribs pull the comb down and away from your face for even greater shooting comfort and faster follow-ups.

 

 

The new Inflex II Technology recoil pad is the next generation of the most recoil absorbing pad available. A softer new outer material provides even better recoil absorbing performance and is super slippery to prevent snagging on clothing when shouldering. Internal directional deflection construction guides the comb down and away from your cheek for greater shooting comfort and faster, more accurate follow-up shots.
