The Browning X-Bolt 2 Hunter builds on the proven reputation of the X-Bolt platform—delivering the accuracy, reliability, and refined craftsmanship hunters expect in the field.

At its core is a redesigned receiver featuring additional bolt guidance surface area, resulting in smoother cycling and enhanced durability. The updated bolt includes an ergonomic handle and maintains the fast, efficient 60° bolt lift, providing quick operation while clearing large optics with ease.

The rifle is stocked in a satin-finished, checkered walnut stock, blending traditional aesthetics with practical field performance. A sporter contour barrel keeps weight manageable while maintaining excellent accuracy. The action is bedded at the recoil lug and action screws, and the barrel is free-floated to ensure consistent shot placement.

The new DLX Trigger is a precision three-lever design delivering zero creep, zero take-up, and zero overtravel. Factory set at 3.5 lbs and adjustable down to 3.0 lbs, it offers a clean, predictable break suited for hunting conditions.

Finished in a non-reflective matte blued coating, the X-Bolt 2 Hunter is designed to minimize glare in the field. A low-profile bottom metal, 1-1/4" Inflex recoil pad, and Browning’s X-Lock Scope Mounting System—with four screws per base for a rock-solid hold—round out a rifle built for serious performance.

Classic styling. Modern refinement. Field-ready accuracy. The Browning X-Bolt 2 Hunter is built to carry on the legacy.
