Really enjoyed the review, like I said yesterday I love my X bolt in 308. This will be my fourth deer season using it. Mine has been very accurate and I just shoot Remington 150 gr. core lokt psp. Couldn't be happier with a rifle and the great thing about it is that it was a Christmas gift from my boss.

Years ago I worked the gun bar at Academy,and we had an x bolt in 7/08 and I fell in love with that gun,but unfortunately couldn't afford it at the time.I felt like it would be the perfect whitetail rifle here in Northeast Georgia.I loved how the gun felt in my hand when carried at the magazine.The stock is so smooth and rounded there,it just felt perfect,and the overall weight and balance was perfect.Im now in a position to buy another rifle and have been thinking about getting one of these.Thanks for the video and story of this fine rifle.

for people that like the rifle overall but wish the trigger could be adjusted lighter than what you get with the factory trigger: no need to shell out for a high-quality replacement trigger. MCARBO sells a replacement spring for around 12 bucks that takes an additional pound or more off the factory setup. PS - I only mention this b/c some folks complain that they can't get the adjustment down as light as they want (i.e., below 3-1/2lb). I'm def not saying there's anything wrong with the stock trigger. My daughter gets average 0.46 MOA 3-shot groups with factory Hornady 7mm-08 ammo using the factory trigger.

@desertdogoutdoors1113 3 жыл бұрын
It's whatever feels better to you. In my opinion, the X-Bolt has a better safety, bolt override, magazine release (I absolutely HATE the Sako "Total Control Latch"), and Barrel. The Sako 85 has a better feed & ejection system, built-in scope mounts, can be top-loaded, has back-up iron sights, and a better grade of Walnut if you get a wood stock.

@@Gaumik-c2l - Thanks Mike. My curiosity lies with the X-Bolt, because I’ve never owned one. As you might know, the Sako 85’s have had a big problem with extractions of large magnum cartridges, like 338 and larger. I’d like to get a 375 H&H in stainless, and the Browning is an option. I had a look at a Sako 85, and the empty cartridge is ejected at a very steep angle, and crashes into its scope, occasionally falling back into the receiver. I saw this myself on a 375 H&H, and there are a lot of videos on KZbin. I asked the guys at EuroOptic about this, and they said “just get higher scope ring” 🙄. On a $2,000 rifle, I don’t think so. I have a Bavarian in 270 Win, and I love it.

thinking about getting one of these, but it's a left-handed version because I literally can't find any 308-win rifles for a good price with a reputable brand. I found a left-handed version on gun broker for about a thousand dollars, is that a good price for a 308 x-bolt hunter for left-handed. it's just that being left-handed really messes with my options.

Great reviews! Just curious.. if you are saying the barrel and bedding are better on the X Bolt than the Model 70, I would assume the accuracy is better too. Plus it has a lower bolt lift. I am having trouble understanding why you say the M70 is a better hunting rifle?

Fit & finish, control-round feed and ejection, hinged floorplate, trigger, and safety design is better on the Model 70. I think the barrels are a little better on the browning, but the M70s are still easy sub-MOA guns.

Agree with everything... But one should limit himself to 7mm rem mag or 30 06, when it comes to x bolt hunter, as it is a bit light for shy shooters. What bugs me as an owner of one is the bedding, never seen that poor engineering solution on the rear screw. Other than that it is a tack driver for the price and will give you decades of service.

I wasn’t too keen on the XBolt when it was initially debuted. The “Euro” designed stock was just plain ugly. Fast forward several years, my oldest son wanted a rifle for Xmas. He “hinted” that he wanted an XBolt. Against my better judgment, I picked him up a composite Stalker in 30-06. The very first range session with it made me a convert. Everything we stuffed into it, factory and handloads resulted in sub moa bug holes! Truly unbelievable a factory rifle that light, with a barrel contour that skinny shoots that good.

I picked one up in 7-08 on a whim when it was discounted in a local shop. It handles so well that it has become my go too rifle. It is light, comfortable, and a real tack driver. I have a safe full of rifles many that are more expensive and this is the one. I will use my 300 Weatherby for elk or moose, the x-bolt for everything else. I hunt in the Wyoming Bighorn Mountains. On those big climbs the little 7-08 X-bolt is just the ticket for a light handy little rifle. When I know ranges are reasonable. With good bullets Elk within 300 yards are perfectly reasonable for that little rifle. The recoil is so reasonable the target never leaves the sight in that first shot, making a follow up shot quick and easy if ever needed.

Appreciate the info and expertise in this and your other vids! I have an even cheaper version - a gray synthetic stocked 280 Rem. Like yours, it shoots sub MOA. And I agree with all your points. I added a 1/2" walnut spacer to increase the LOP by 1/2 inch -- which was simple compared to trying to do the same with other synthetic stocks. And I found that the synthetic stock material used is thicker -- like 2 or 3 times thicker - than other synthetic stocks. Solid, quiet, glass bedded stock. They also added slight, internal shoulder/indentation to the magazine to keep rounds from hitting the front of the magazine under recoil. They really paid attention to detail with this gun.. Thanks again!

Love the X-Bolt. I've killed a lot of animals with my 30-06: from prairie dogs up to elk. Shoots just about every bullet you put in it. He didn't talk about the action much, but it is amazingly smooth and consistent with these rifles (at least with mine). A couple of years ago I was in a situation where I had to rattle off two shots back to back on an elk (adrenaline trumped decision-making skills). Within my last hours of elk hunting season, I jumped a couple of bulls. As they ran away from me, I put one in the rear hawk, then, without missing a beat, as the first shot spun him around, I put a second shot in the boiler room. I was able to place another in the boiler room as he passed through a small window in the trees about a second later. This is all off hand, from a mediocre shooter. I don't recommend doing that sort of thing, but the point is, it's just not possible to do that with a lesser rifle, trust me. The kick is just right to keep you on target and the bullets feed so smoothly it might as well be called a semiautomatic. Again, really stupid decision, I'm thankful Browning made a tool that could pull off the job.

We all have our American Pride and we should. However, the amount of attention to detail Japanese culture puts into the packaging of an item alone is mind blowing. The item inside you can bet was crafted with even more care and precision. Each person is held accountable and you can bet sending out faulty items comes with pretty harsh repercussions. I worked for a Polysilicon manufacturer here in the United States that was part owned by Komatsu. Cleanliness and attention to detail were of utmost significance and importance in every operation performed. Percieved image by the world, toward the Japanese culture, is extremely important and drives everything they do. It's embedded in to them from a very young age. They are very self conscious of their image at first glance, it will stick with you once you interact with them on a professional level.

I agree. Browning x bolt is a fine rifle. You said you didnt really like the abolt but I'm a fan of the abolt II. Browning is my favorite firearms manufacturer. Good video

I grew up using a browning ablot from my father. Absolutely loved the gun. After I watched your video, I picked up a xbolt in 30-06. She shoots great!

Browning has become my favorite gun, I have 4 now. Imo just as good as a Weatherby for 1/2 the price. Safest bolt system I've ever seen when unloading a loaded gun.

Just bagged a 4 point mulie with my X-Bolt All Weather Stainless in 7mm-08 with 120 gr. TTSX factory ammo. Shoots .39 moa with a 2 lb trigger. Tack driver!

I just ordered a Browning X Bolt Micro in 7mm 08 left hand. I previously had a A Bolt Medallion left hand in .270 and I loved that gun. It was a tough decision with so many great options on the market right now but I really missed my Browning. I can't wait to use it for whitetail hunting here in PA.

This guy says the truth about Browning x bolt. I have my x bolt on a .308 Win. And i really fell in love once i see it on KZbin channel. I have few deer and few hogs drop in it's tracks. Very happy. Very good quality. I couldn't say enough. I love it. Thanks

Anyone who has ever bought musical instruments, motorcycles, or outboard motors knows Japanese products are par or better than USA ones. Finding out the X Bolt is now made in Japan made me buy one today. Hunter 30-06 with a Leupold VX3 on it.

Excellent rifles. Didn’t play with mine much and it didn’t shoot 150 gr Ballistic tips from a .308 like I was hoping. Bought mine when they were on clearance at F&S before they sold to Sportsmans warehouse. After rebate I had $475 into it. Should’ve bought the .243 and .270 that were on the shelf too

Beautiful rifle. Beautiful scope. Any monolithic bullet featuring relief grooves begs to have a Lee Factory Crimp applied to the mouth in each groove for testing. Typically, each COAL will be accurate but one will be outstanding. However sometimes the longest one won't chamber. No problem. Just reseat to the next groove. Great review on a fine rifle. May have to pick one up! Thanks!
