Browning's X-Bolt 2 Hunter in 6.8 Western features a composite stock with adjustable length of pull and comb, tungsten Cerakote receiver, spiral fluted bolt, and radial muzzle brake.
The X-Bolt 2 Hunter Composite represents Browning's commitment to delivering a rifle that performs as well as it looks. Built on a proven platform, this bolt-action rifle combines modern ergonomics with genuine field utility.
The Vari-Tech composite stock features:
The 24-inch sporter contour barrel is threaded for suppressor or muzzle device compatibility. A spiral fluted bolt reduces weight while maintaining strength, and the included radial muzzle brake helps manage recoil and muzzle rise—particularly valuable in the 6.8 Western cartridge.
The receiver wears a Tungsten Cerakote finish that provides superior corrosion resistance and durability. The barrel features a non-reflective matte blued finish that resists glare in the field.
This modern cartridge delivers excellent velocity and energy in a short-action platform, making it ideal for hunting medium to large game with minimal recoil compared to larger magnums.
