I don't have anything against the X bolt. I've got two A bolts and love them. One is 270 and the other is an Alt 6. I'm a big Browning fan.

I'm about to order a T3 LH in 308, I believe. I'm itching to buy something. It was going to be a truck until late this afternoon when I decided to hell with it. My current 2013 model is fine for me.

Now I'm on to guns and other cool shite to get my hunting lease back operational. Me not hunting this season won't occur again.

Have an xbolt. Damn fine rifle. Never personally worked up a Browning with accuracy issues. All have shot half MOA or better.

What did hill country do for 600 bucks!?!

I have a Xbolt in 300wsm. Can cloverleaf 3 shots at 100 yards out of a leadsled. Love the gun, hate paying for the ammo.

My friend has one in 300 wsm. He liked his so much he bought his wife one in 308. My cousin and another friend have x bolts in 270 wsm. They all love them. They're good guns from what I've seen and the recoil isn't bad either especially since they are so light.

I am probably going to get some crap for this statement but a major gripe I have with Browning's is that they are made in Japan. I have always been one to spend money on American and European guns only. The one time I have shot an Browning (it was an A-bolt .308) was when my friend needed me to sight it in. After the 5th shot, it began to keyhole. This was also reaffirmation on why I should stray from them.
