I bought my wife an xbolt the first year they came out standard wood stock ..the fit an finish is very nice an has consitantly shot under 1 inch with any Federal premium load an now with the new Browning ammo luv the gun I thank that the magazine is awesome both functional an pleasing to the eye just a great rifle chambered in 308win
I just bought a 308 x bolt too and surprize surprize its going back to the factory ... I fired a single round and couldnt open the bolt ... The dealer i bought it from concluded it was a head space issue... NICE JOB ON THE BARRELS BROWNING !!!
I got X-Bolt stalker in 308 Win, and the bore started developing rust spots internally at the muzzle area even though the rifle has never been used and was always lubed every 3 months.
@14goldmedals give wholesale sports a call. I believe they can order straight from browning. dont take my word for it, but I did work there and most if not all calibers were available
Hard to believe what Browning says about the X-Bolt Barrel. My White Gold X-Bolt 308 arrived with a VERY large burnishing type of defect right on the edge of the bore at the crown. Gorgeous rifle but it had to be re-crowned at my expense. Any inspection at all would have caught this obvious manufacturing defect at the factory. Air Gauged? I doubt it very much. The bore was full of tooling marks that resembled hammer forging marks. If they did air gauge it, they totally ignored the results.
I have a x bolt hunter in 308. I have never had a issue with mine. Best rifle I own by far.

I agree. Button rifling is inferior as well.
I want one! I may give it a tryn
Tooling marks don't have to affect accuracy. It just doesn't look nice.. It's inside the barrel who cares what it looks like.
the guy at 3:37, he is just reading off a note card that the people are showing him
Did browning use the same barrel standards/quality for their A-Bolt II models?
and at 3:57
Button is not superior to cold hammer forged
Listening to this video makes me wonder if this is what an aneurism feels like...
