BROWNING X-Bolt Target Max Competition Heavy, 6MM GT, 26" barrel, Short action, 10 rounds

Long-range rifle competition is growing at a rapid rate with more and more shooters testing their skill and equipment. The Precision Rifle Series Production Class is one of the fastest growing segments. Unlike other divisions where the sky is the limit when it comest to cost, this competitive class encourages participation by newcomers by limiting the original cost of the rifle and optics so they don't have to compete against expensive, custom equipment. Thus, the out of the box features and accuracy of their rifle are paramount. Fortunately, winning is a specialty of Browning and we’ve developed the new X-Bolt Target MAX Competition Heavy.

Make no mistake, this rifle is packing a lot of performance ... and heft. The foundation of this rifle is a stiffer, heavier, full-diameter receiver. The heavy, bull barrel measures a full one inch at the muzzle. Even the MAX stock receives the custom treatment and is produced using a heavier, nylon filled material. Together, these features add necessary mass that helps stabilize the rifle for improved accuracy at long ranges.

In addition to the extra weight, the receiver has an alignment flat to aid in scope alignment/leveling. The recoil lug is pinned to the receiver to ensure perfect orientation if the barrel needs to be replaced. The included 20 MOA Picatinny optics rail is held in place with four oversize 8-40 screws and an additional steel pin that secures the rail to the receiver. The bolt features a longer handle to reduce opening force.
