I am looking for a new rifle. How does the new Xbolt Speed 2 compare to the Winchester Exteme Tungsten in terms of performance and accuracy? It appears that some folks love their Winchesters and others find the picky with ammo. I love the Model 70 but I am looking for other opinions and/or experience.
 
I had a extreme tungsten in 7mm rem mag and it was a great gun, back then I was still only shooting 3 shot groups and it would put those in .75-1.25" groups pretty consistently. Right now I'm shooting the X-Bolt 2 and to me I'd prefer the X-bolt. 10 shot groups between 1.3-1.6" and as much hate as the trigger gets I would prefer the X-bolt trigger over the Winchester and the adjustability of the stock just makes it fit better. If I were you I'd see which one feels better to shoulder and go with it, I don't think you will be disappointed either way
