I'm a fan of the Browning Micro as well and have hunted with one for more than 10 years as an adult. I would recommend the Xbolt over the Abolt for the simple reason that I believe the bolt release button offered on the Xbolt is safer than unloading the rifle with it in the fire position as is necessary with the Abolt.

It's been mentioned a couple times that the micro is "upgradeable" to a full size stock. I'm not certain that this is the case, at least in something that is commercially available, but I personally prefer the smaller stock.
