Browning X-Bolt 2 Target Competition Lite .308 Win Bolt Action Rifle, Gray - 036038218

Long-range target shooting competitions are gaining popularity, offering shooters a thrilling opportunity to test their skills and equipment. Whether you're aiming for victory or seeking to expand your shooting experience, the satisfaction of aligning your rifle, optics, ammunition and personal performance is incomparable. One of the most prestigious events is the National Rifle League Production Class, where restrictions on rifle weight and modifications emphasize the importance of out-of-the-box features, quality and accuracy. Enter the new X-Bolt 2 Target Competition Lite, designed to elevate your performance to the next level. This rifle is built on a new full-diameter target receiver, engineered for enhanced stiffness and stability. Inside, additional bolt guidance surfaces ensure smooth operation, while an integrated alignment flat aids in precise scope alignment and leveling. The recoil lug is pinned to the receiver for consistent barrel orientation during replacements. The rifle features a 20 MOA picatinny optics rail secured by oversized screws and a steel pin, providing robust attachment points. The redesigned spiral fluted bolt includes an extended handle to reduce opening force, paired with an ergonomic knob for improved handling. The Xtra Capacity Magazine System supports Accuracy International chassis system (AICS) pattern magazines, offering reliable feeding with options for 5- and 10-round capacities. For precise shooting, the patent-pending Browning Target DLX Trigger boasts a zero creep, zero take-up and zero overtravel design, breaking like glass with adjustable settings ranging from 2 to 3.30 lb. The rifle achieves optimal weight balance with a precision carbon fiber barrel from Preferred Barrels, renowned for its strength and accuracy. This barrel is Suppressor-ready with 5/8-24 SR threads and includes a Recoil Hawg Competition muzzle brake to minimize felt recoil, crucial for competitive shooting comfort. The action is bedded and the barrel is free-floated to ensure consistent accuracy. The Vari-Tech stock offers chassis-style adjustability, allowing changes to comb height for optimal eye-to-optic alignment and length of pull adjustments with internal spacers for a secure, customized fit. The grip angle can be modified with interchangeable vertical and sporter modules, while rubber over molding on gripping surfaces provides a secure hold in any condition. In competition, fractions of a second can determine success, making fit and comfort crucial. The Vari-Tech stock, tailored to your dimensions, enhances shooting precision by ensuring the rifle feels like a natural extension of your body, facilitating quicker and more accurate follow-up shots. A picatinny rail on the forearm simplifies attachment of precision bi-pods, while its removable design accommodates popular ARCA/Swiss rails for additional accessory mounting options.
