Just got mine in 300wm. It's actually gonna be used for police services as a observer/sniper rifle. Can't wait to take it to training it’s going to be great to carry around. It’s so light, in front of reviews the recoil seems to be very very manageable. The finish on the weapon seems to be very durable. I’m gonna be on the ground quite often and the accuracy seems to be absolutely superb. I just picked her up yesterday. Can’t wait to go get it cited in.
@@NativeOutdoorswithDavisJones I’ve seen nothing but positive reviews. The only thing I’ve seen that I had a few people complain about is that it heats up pretty fast. But that’s to be expected.
@@NativeOutdoorswithDavisJones that definitely sounds like fun. I guess the good thing is I can use it as a dual purpose with Hudson as well. I’m actually located in North Alabama.
How did it group? .5 MOA as advertised? I still can’t get mine under 1.25. Same rifle 300 win mag. Still trying other rounds to find the right one. Love the rifle just need the right round since I picked the rifle to reach out to 500 yards comfortably. I am also going to try removing the muzzle break. As an FYI I had a gun smith look at it. He determined I had some barrel whip due to the light barrel. He re-bedded it and I haven’t tried it out since that.
Do you reload? Also what ammo have you tried? My brother has one in a 280 Ackley and he has groups around .5 with 2 different powders. It could be the ammo tested.
Yo, I'm so pumped for you! I love this!
Thanks! I’m so excited to go hunting with it.

This gun is absolutely incredible.

@@NativeOutdoorswithDavisJones with your experience have you noticed a large disruption in your grouping as she heats up.
Great rifle, bang for buck cant be beat! I enjoy my X-Bolt hunter '06. They keep getting better. Enjoy that rifle!
I agree man. Thanks for commenting!
@@NativeOutdoorswithDavisJones You like the Win Model 70?
@@rainsong7327 yes!
I have the same rifle in .300 WSM. Love it!!!
I don’t know which one I like the most: the 300 or the 6.5 Creedmoor. Thanks for your comment.
I have a 300 Wsm and 280 Xbolt. Both are great rifles ! I especially love the 300 Wsm
I love my 300 win mag. I will be buying another x bolt.

I have not tested it at 500 yards but the Winchester Extreme Point ammo groups exceptionally well around 250 yards. Let me know what you find!

@@Bobcat3355 No I don’t reload. I switched to Winchester extreme point ammo. And now the rifle is performing very well.
I do not reload ether. I will try the win extreme. Thanks for feedback
I’m a big fan of Federal Premium. More expensive but from what I have used in factory it’s some of the best on the market along with Nosler
