BRO MAG XBOLT 6.8 Western Short Tactical 3-Round Magazine

The Black Rain Ordnance BRO MAG XBOLT 6.8 Western Short tactical magazine brings a purpose-built feed system to one of modern hunting's most capable magnum cartridges. Engineered specifically for the 6.8 Western and short-action bolt rifles, this 3-round magazine ditches the offset geometry of traditional leaf-spring designs in favor of a straight-line feed path that chambers rounds with the efficiency your rifle deserves. Whether you're setting up a precision hunting rifle or a long-range range gun, this magazine's rotary design and polymer construction keep things running clean and light.

What sets this magazine apart is its ergonomic approach to simplicity. The magnum-length cartridges load directly in line with your bolt's path into the chamber—no binding, no compromise. Black Rain Ordnance backed this innovation with U.S. patents (8156675, 8484875, and 8745912), proof that they've engineered something genuinely different. The durable polymer body holds up to field use while shaving unnecessary weight, and the magazine-mounted release puts control exactly where your hand naturally goes.

Three rounds might seem modest, but for most hunting and tactical applications, it's exactly what you need: capacity without bulk, and a magazine that works as hard as you do. If you're running an XBOLT or similar short-action magnum rifle in 6.8 Western, this is the magazine purpose-built to make it run.
