I did talk to Browning. They indicated that the Xbolt 2 and Xbolt original stocks would be interchangeable. but that the bolts are slightly different and a fluted Xbolt 2 bolt will not work with an original Xbolt.
Has anyone had an Xbolt bolt fluted? I'm considering having one fluted but it would also need cerakote reapplied to match the original. Has anyone had this done? If so can you suggest someone to do it and share the cost?
Thank You!
It's available in general but not necessarily in the bullet I'm looking for (accubond, terminal ascent, trophy bonded tip, etc.). Of those currently listed per your link, which would you consider for elk? Thank You!!
Well ideally ammo becomes more available, and I can just keep the 300 WSM but yes also considering other options in the case that ammo availability continues to be a challenge.
I bought an XBolt 300 WSM in 2019 to be my elk rifle. Factory ammo is getting harder to find and much more expensive. Do people feel this round will ever come back or will it just fade away? If I upgrade I feel I should maybe stay away from calibers such as the 6.8 Western, 300 PRC, 7PRC, and...
On the first one the forend wouldn't go on. Me and the FFL struggled with it for about an hour and sent it back. Appparently there was a bad batch of forends and this happened to others as well,. The second one they sent would not cycle any shells and occasionally wouldn't fire when you pulled...
I have a Franchi Affinity 3 Turkey and a Mossberg SA 20 Tactical Turkey. I much prefer the Mossberg. I shoot TSS. I've had a lot of problems with the Franchi and would never buy another.
I have 2-7600's in 3006. By far my favorite rifle for hunting the big woods. I had a trigger job done on one and it improved significantly. They are great rifles as long as you're not shooting too far IMO. I know several people who had the 7400's-all had issues with them.
Can anyone talk about their experiences with Talley mounts? Thinking about getting some for my Xbolt 300 WSM to get the scope a little lower as compared to the current Warne one piece rail. Do people feel like these are a solid option?
Thank You!
I thought I read somewhere that some XBolt 2's would be available in May. I wish they were making the 2 in a 7MM-08. Trying to decide if I should get an original speed in 7MM-08 or an Xbolt 2 in 308....
Does anyone make a decent pair of hip boots anymore? I had a pair of Cabelas brand that were great for about 10 years and of course they don't make them anymore. Any suggestions here?
Thank You!
