The model name of the new rifle, X-Bolt Hunter Long Range, pretty much explains the intended use and target market. Let’s see what features and options Browning offers in this rifle.

The rifles are equipped with muzzle brakes and there is also a thread protector included in the package. The overall length of these rifles varies from 42″ to 46 3/4″ depending on the caliber, action size and barrel length. These factors also determine the overall weight which varies from 7 lbs 11 oz to 8 lbs 6 oz.

The Grade I black walnut stock has a satin finish and the steel parts like the receiver, barrel or sling swivel studs feature matte blued finish.

The length of pull is 13 3/4″. The rifle is fed from rotary flush-fit magazines of three or four round capacity. The receiver is drilled and tapped for mounting scope rings or rails.
